did the flag last year . something new thes year . how long dose it take to walk from icmeler to marmaris and is it all along the sea front

Yes its all along the sea front. It took us about an hour and a half, but we stopped for a drink. Make sure you do it early though before it is too hot. Its a beautiful walk.

will be stopping 4 a drink or 2 on the way

We did it this year too - it is a nice walk, but it was getting pretty hot by the time we got to Marmaris, so we took the easy option and got the water taxi back. A nice breeze to cool us off after our exertions - perfect!

thats the plan water taxi back

We also did that. Had a walk along the beach, stopped off for a drink then we had breakfast in Marmaris. The water taxi back was glorious.

looking forward to taxi back now .

Hi
Try a drink at Cafe del mar, then set off. Look for the lizards near the Ice rink , takes as said before 1 and a half hours stroll, then taxi boat back. Did it last year and will do again this.

I've clocked the distance for the walk. (sad I know). From the Munamar hotel to the marina in Marmaris is 7 1/2 kilometres. Took my dad on the walk this year he's nearly 80 and made it all the way without too much complaining. Took us 3 hours at a very nice pace with a few drink stops.

You might also think about freezing a bottle of water each to take with you. It melts nice and slowly along the walk so you get cold drinks all the way.
It's a lovely walk. ENJOY.

The walk was on my todo list in May, only there for a week so ran out of time.
Its a must do in September, water taxi back - roll on my jollies

walked it a couple of times with grand kids ..about 1 to 2 hrs depending on stops drinks ice creams etc..going to try running it this year with my youngest(16) hes going into the army so hes training..going to do it early in the day take the dolmus from icmeler to marmaris then jog back wifes going to meet us with plenty of water

As has been said. We set off about 10.lots of water for the walk, got some grapes, had a beer & lunch at a beach bar on the outskirts of Marmaris,walk on a bit further then got a taxi boat back, great few hours, that beer tasted good though.

Re walk to marmaris my wife and i was 60 when we did icmeler marmaris walk in to tansas for a cool down lovely then walked back .This was an all day trip a few efis went down well shatterd when we got back wonderfull walk

My wife and I did the Icmeler/Marmaris walk every other day last month. Stopping off in various bars along the way for a cool efes and maybe a breakfast and saying Hi to the guys that we've met over the years. We usually end up at the Tansas picking up one or two things for the apartment (as well as a Caramel Magnum) before setting off back, stopping along the way for even more cool efes'. By the time we get back our tan is looking great and we've worked up a healthy appetite and are looking forward to our evening meal. Back out in August and looking forward to continuing the walk (and the Efes).

We're thinking of doing the walk this year, although only one way! Never been into Marmaris before despite going to Icmeler 3 times before! Once we've walked along the beach into Marmaris, where do we find the water taxi to get back?

We did the walk about 18.30 one evening, eat on the harbour, got a dolmus back, I'm not a walker{unlike hubby} but really enjoyed it. I would say do it....... Its all on the flat..easy...!!

Hi jayelay
The water taxi stops at most of the jettys along the beach, so even if you only walk a little way you can continue by water taxi to the Marina,Castle and Bazaar.

We walked many times all the way starting from Marmaris Bazaar to Icmeler (went by Dolmus from Icmeler). Usually it took around 2 hours as we just wanted to enjoy the scenery and my daughter is constantly stopping to take pictures
I just love to take that walk later in the evening, especially when it's already getting dark, air feels like a soft blanket, there's music, moonlight over the sea - this is the feeling I keep in my mind for the cold winter days back here in Finland.

We did the walk last year with the kids we set off from the blue star apps which is at back of the old village we enjoyed the walk its the first time we tried it the kids didnt enjoy it they thought it was cruel they said we scared them for life
