Hi

Have never been to Marmaris Castle in all the years we've been to Ish. Where is the entrance? and is it really worth a visit??

JC

Visited the Castle many years ago. The entrance was in the little square and the views from the top were super - well worth a look. Hope you enjoy

when you get near to the castle there are signs directing you. it is up a small hill, we went year before last, if i remember it is a couple of tl to get in. not a very big castle but nice, with some good views of the harbour and the big cruise ships. be aware that they blow the horn on the ship to get the passengers back on board, and if your in the castle when it goes of you will s**t yourself

Castle worh a visit but make sure you have some lira coins, staff were having difficulty giving change for notes when I visited and you dont want to go back down the hill for change .

where is marmaris castle? could someone give me directions please

Marmaris Castle is in the Marina area of Marmaris, you get there by going up narrow streets.

hi does anyone know which day the castle is closed

remember which day it was
on countdown only 6 days to go

It's open every day except Mondays - and you've got to visit the little shop near the castle run by "Mama Castle". She's a lovely woman - but I defy you to visit her shop and not spend anything!

And she has an iron grip as she drags you in, the castle is definately worth a trip

If you're in that direction, I suggest you give Castle Bar a visit, as the views from the rooftop are breathtaking. We were told that this was the highest viewpoint in Marmaris. We always go there as the sun is just going down over Icmeler. Don't venture up if you have a dodgy heart, as you have to climb up about seventy steps or more to get up there. However, the view at the top is beautiful, and you can stay and have an Efes or two when you get to the top.
