The quietest day this week is Thursday 12 November — Calm, busier than 38% of the year.
How to avoid the worst of it today
- The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus Morning The foundations, the hillside theatre and the Myndos Gate lie scattered through town.
- Bitez Afternoon A gentler bay than the headline beaches, and the reason to come off-peak.
Where the crowds are
- The castle gate: The town's one true queue, at its worst when a cruise call meets high season.
- Bar street & the marina lanes: Loud and crowded after ten at night in season.
Quiet places in Bodrum
- The water: Any boat off the quay trades the town's peak hours for coves and swimming platforms.
- The ancient scatter — Mausoleum, theatre, Myndos Gate: The Mausoleum, the theatre and the Myndos Gate, almost always empty.
