Icmeler Online Holiday Forum & Reviews - Turkey

We were planning on going to the beach at Turunc for a day when we visit next week.

Although we have been to Icmeler many times before we are not too sure if there is a dolmus service from Icmeler to Turunc?

Can anyone advise?

You can catch the bus depending on where you are staying from a few poits in Icmeler.

Let us know where you are staying and we will advise

We are staying at the Demircioglu Apartments.

Thanks

In that case you need to catch the bus up to the village from across the road from the Demircioglu at the Elvis bar.

Tell them to put you off at the Stonehouse and you can get the Turunc bus from there.

Or get a water taxi probably about £5

do the water taxis run in October?

15 lira each,return on the water taxi,lovely and relaxing takes about 20 mins.

There are some fantastic views as you go up the mountain, absolutely breathtaking and well worth doing

Suppose it's better than having to walk up it though!

Hi

We were in Icmeler over week ago and took water taxi to Turunc, It rained heavily and when we headed back for water boat i refused to get on cos im a scardey cat and the gangway was like a thin strip of metal drifting away from pier and nothing to hold on to, so got dolmus back from Turunc, and because of weather roads were slippy and really scary experience, so if you are not of faint heart then dolmus cost 5 lira one way and waterboat was 15 lira, dolmus drops you at far end of icmeler close to market area.

rain or no rain dolmus ride to and from torunc is scary to say the least. def not for the nervous disposition

Thanks for all your helpful comments.

I think we shall take the water taxi. Dolmus is scary enough at the best of times without throwing a dodgy road into the equation.

yeah the road is scary especially some of the bends
your surprised how they make them

i am on edge just thinking about the road.
