What to See and Do

By , About.com Guide

Few, if any, sunny port cities can lay claim to containing one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, an underwater museum inside a castle, a breathtakingly chic cliffside hotel, and a dance-till-dawn nightlife scene.

Yet that’s exactly what lures sun, history, and fun lovers to Bodrum, Turkey, a sun-bleached peninsula where Aegean and Mediterranean waters meet.

As the good-times capital of Turkey's southwestern coast, Bodrum has numerous restaurants, marina-side cafés, and booming discos.

Ancient Halicarnassus, renamed Bodrum, is the birthplace of Herodotus, the father of history. Bodrum’s own history stretches back to the beginning of recorded time.
