This site looks promising http://www.bodrumpages.com/English/ferries_e.html or you could do Marmaris - Rhodes and Rhodes - Bodrum, you need to work the times though, have a look at http://www.olymposyachting.com/en/ferry_boat/bodrum_rhodes.asp

There is a ferry that departs from just outside of Marmaris on a Thursday and goes direct to bodrum.

It is a hydrofoil but I think it is too early in the season yet to operate

Marmaris to Bodrum

Hi

Im going to be in Bodrum for the summer, i fly out on Monday.. so so excited!

I found out yesterday a friend of mine will be working as a rep in Marmaris for the summer.. would be great to meet up with them, im just not sure how easy it is. Never really travelled around before in Turkey.

So im wondering how we would go about meeting up? they dont look that far away on the map.. possibly 2 or 3 hours? but i could be totally off

Any info would be great x

Hi cute_lil_mami !,
Really easy - you get the coach from Bodrum Bus Station - Just ask at one of the Travel Offices - direct to Marmaris Bus Station.

One stop on the way - I think it took a total of 3.5 hrs - nice scenary and comfortable coach.

Ferries from Marmaris to Bodrum

Our daughter visited us from Gumbet to marmaris a couple of years ago, not sure if the hydrofoil was operating in June,so they took a bus from Bodrum at 6 in the morning arriving about 9.30 into marmaris, cost them a few pounds each,stayed a couple of days with us,and left at 4.30pm back to bodrum.

There is a hydrofoil from Marmaris to Bodrum, I think it takes about an hour. Haven't used it but know people that have. It will be a much quicker option than by dolmus
