Icmeler Online Holiday Forum & Reviews - Turkey

Just wondering if anyone has seen anybody swimming in the sea yet? Is the sea warm after all the mixed weather?
Thanks in advance.

not seen or hard of anyone swimming yet. We normally go in mid May and it is stil blooody freezin then

Was in the sea this time last year & it was lovely, straight in no hesitation but weather was better then. Turkish people say you shouldn't go in the sea until the watermelons are ready!!

Saw a pic on FB the other day of some brave soul taking a dip!

Flying out tomorrow - will let you know!

Can't be colder than the North Sea in summer... I'd go in for a swim everyday if I lived there

Thanks for everyone's comments. Look forward to hearing from you Noodles; we won't be far behind you & can try the sea for ourselves. I don't mind a nit of cold having swam out of the Gorge at Saklikent a number of times now that's cold!!

cant be as cold as river on akyaka trip that's what you call cold brrrrrrrr!!!!

The gorge is where the water first surfaces & it is absolutely freezing. Still to try Akyaka, probably this year, so can compare then.

My Mum mentioned to me that Tolga from Rhodes Apartments was on Facebook and was swimming in the sea. Maybe he was the brave soul that is mentioned earlier in this thread. Brrrrrrrr cold.....

people were swimming Xmas at Lara Beach...

There have been many people swimming in the sea in Marmaris now the weather has warmed up. I have not been brave enough to venture close to the sea yet and not heard any comments on how warm it is, but can't be too bad if people are going in and staying with smiles on their faces

Nutters!!!! LOL
