We skirted the holiday town of Marmaris which is pretty much a mass tourism resport although it does have a nice harbour and promenade and drove down the peninsualr for 25k looking for a particular campsite that a French couple had recommended to us. They told us it was directly on the beach but we couldn't see such a place as we were on a road way above the beach. Eventually we called into the only place we could find and they told us the camping was 1.5k down a winding track and low and behold the beach!! It was heaven, a little cove with a beach bar, 3 yachts moored off the beach and just a few campers dotted amongst the trees. It was total peace and quiet, with no barking dogs and the wailing of the mosques. It was too far to go into town so we just camped there for 2 days and swam in the sea which is really, really warm. We are probably only just starting to unwind now after all the planning and preparation. Things seem so important before you leave but get less so on the way. The scenary now is much more what we had expected after our disappointment of Greece with undulating pineclad roads hugging the coastline.
