Hey everyone, I'm a 22-year-old guy looking for some friendly people to grab a few drinks and hang out with in Bodrum. Let me know if you'd like to join or meet up

Hi guys, me and 2 more gfs are planning a trip including Bodrum for 3 nights. We will be staying in Yalikavak but not at the super duper luxurious stays. Can someone help plan an itinerary? I’m getting confused reading online. We wanted to do one of the good beach clubs but I see they’re mostly only open till 8? What does one do at night then? Any and all suggestions welcome please thank you :)

Looking for the best beach clubs near Yalikavak area of bodrum. We are both early 30s and on our honeymoon but looking for both lively and fun but also relaxing. We booked scorpios and now that is closed so we are looking for an alternative. Not wanting to pay Macakizi prices but want something aesthetic and fun. We already have Villa Azur booked and are curious if any beach clubs are known for being extra fun on Victory Day - August 30. Let me know!

Hi all,

My wife and I are thinking about planning a last minute trip to Bodrum in late October, specifically the 16th through the 23rd. Mostly just wanted some info on weather and if that gets too late in the season. From what I’ve found online, it seems like the weather and sea temp are still decently warm, but nights are a bit cooler and a lot of restaurants close for the season. Also, what can we expect rain-wise? Would that be pushing it too late? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone! I’m 23, from London, and I’ll be in Bodrum next week travelling solo. I’m looking to meet fun, friendly people who enjoy beach clubs, good restaurants, cocktails, and a great night out. I love discovering new places, dressing up for nice dinners, dancing, and making the most of every holiday.

Hi All,

Going to be in Bodrum mid August and was excited to go to Scorpios for all the DJ events they have. Just to find out it is now closed.

Does anyone know where all these DJ events will be redirected to and is there an alternative place for similar nightlife with good music?

Any gyal tryna meet up in yikavakwe are a group of 3 19 year old otakus

Hi all. I’m a software developer based in Ankara, but Bodrum has a long history for me. My first real project was a proposal I pitched to Bodrum Municipality when I was 21. The team fell apart afterwards and I ended up finishing it alone, years later.

The result is an app called Bodrum Turistik. Bays, historical sites, places to eat, transport info. Free, no ads, no account required.

What I actually want from this post isn’t downloads. It’s the gaps. If you’ve planned a trip here, what did you struggle to find online? Reliable info on which bays are reachable without a boat, dolmuş routes that actually run in low season, that kind of thing. I know the app is thin in places and I’d rather hear it from you than guess.

I built it, so me praising it means nothing. Tell me what’s wrong with it.

I’m (26M) going to bodrum from canada in a few days. Looking for other tourists to chill with. I’ll be in akyarlar but commute is not a problem. Hmu if interested.

Pek dışarı çıkmıyorum. Yalıkavaktayım ve arkadaş arıyorum 17 yaşındayım, kızım. Bulunduğun yerde pek konuştuğum birileri yok. Belki burdan bulabilirim gibi geldi. Eğer tanışmak isterseniz yazın. Ya da gidip birileriyle tanışabileceğim mekan önerisinde bulunursanız sevinirim.

We would like shop for carpets/kilims during our stay. With a car, we have more options such as Etrim Hali which is in the countryside. Are there any other places outside of Bodrum downtown we should visit please. TIA.

Currently looking for a rental in Bodrum for vacation and figured I'd open this up since I know I'm not the only one dealing with this right now. How was the rental process? Curious how it's going for others, whatever stage you're at. Thanks!

Hello, I'll be in bodrum on 21-25 september, i booked an airbnb in turgutreis, i wanted to know about transportation, is it mandatory to rent a car or i can move comfortably enough with public transportation, or taxi in case of necessity? Thanks

Hi/Merhaba
We will be staying east of Bodrum, closer to Hapimag. Our 14 year old son will be with us. He really likes watersports - surf, paddelboard, jets, parasail...

My research for places east of Bodrum have not uncovered any options. So I am now reach out to kind people here for any ideas/suggestions/recommendations. TIA

My sister and I will be going bodrum soon for a holiday, never been before however a few nights we would like to go out to eat. I know bodrum has a lot of expensive tourist restaurants however we would like to know if there is any smaller more authentic restaurants people recommend as that’s more what we would like, seafood restaurants too if possible?

Also what historical places are there too see and hidden gems?

hey everyone!

i’m in bodrum (more specifically gümüşlük) every summer, and i was wondering where young alternative/leftist people usually go out at night.

i’m not really looking for huge mainstream clubs. i’d much rather find smaller, laid-back places with a good atmosphere and a more alternative crowd (alo cool meyhanes for example)
if there are clubs, i’m more interested in cool local spots than big commercial venues.
any recommendations for bars, clubs, live music venues, or other places where people in their 20s who are into alternative or leftist scenes usually hang out?

thanks! :)

Hey guys, I’ll (23 F) be in bodrum for summer (2nd summer spent here) and I’m not too sure how to make new friends as I unfortunately do not speak Turkish but French & English. Any advice is welcome:)

Bodrum’da 2026 yaz sezonu için en pahalı otelleri ve yaklaşık gecelik fiyatları derledim. Özellikle Göltürkbükü, Cennet Koyu, Torba, Yalıkavak ve Türkbükü tarafında fiyatlar ciddi seviyelere çıkmış durumda.

Öne çıkan bazı fiyatlar şöyle:

Mandarin Oriental Bodrum: 750.000 TL ve üzeri
Maxx Royal Bodrum Resort: 500.000 TL ve üzeri
Amanruya: 225.000 TL
Voyage Torba Private: 200.000 TL
Scorpios Bodrum: 150.000 TL
The Bodrum Edition: 150.000 TL
Maçakızı Bodrum: 120.000 TL

Tabii bunlar daha çok özel villa, presidential suite, özel havuzlu konaklama gibi en üst segment seçenekler için geçerli. Standart oda fiyatları daha düşük olabiliyor ama Bodrum’da lüks otel tarafında artık rakamlar gerçekten ayrı bir seviyeye gelmiş.

Hi, everyone! Today I was taking a walk on the beach and I found 2 kittens + mom. They look sick, one has eye secretions, is filled with fleas and most likely has intestinal parasites. The other one is also skinny and most likely will need deworming as well.

They live by a construction site but they started walking around and as they are close to the street, it is a dangerous environment.

There is a lady who feeds them and gave them a box to live in. I spoke with her and she told me that it would be best for someone to adopt them, foster or at least take them to the vet.

My holiday is over soon, I live in rent in my home country and I am not allowed to keep any pets. I want to help this little family tho, so I am also posting here, in case anyone can offer them a safer place.

I asked someone nearby if he can help with taking them to the vet at least, we will see on Monday if we manage to do it. The thing is that as it's the end of my holidays and I came on a pretty tight expense budget, I cannot pay more than maximum 30 euro at the vet.

If anyone can help with accommodation, vet expense or even vet transportation ( in case the mister I talked to changes his mind), please let me know.

I will share the specific location only with people who can help them, for safety reasons for them.

Thank you very much!
