Bodrum retains its charm despite the crowds and development. Women feel more beautiful, men feel more intriguing. This is Bodrum's spell.
Two meters under the narrow streets of Bodrum lies 5000 years of history. A few monuments attest to this history: the castle, the Myndus Gate, the Roman theatre and the Mausoleum.

The waters around Bodrum are ideal for diving and snorkeling. Professional instructors are available for all levels of competence, from beginners to the "old hands"
