Bodrum, Torba Marina

Tucked into a quiet bay just 6 km northeast of Bodrum town, Torba Marina is a popular charter departure point for exploring the Aegean Turkish coast, with olive groves and pine-covered hillsides rolling right down to the water. The surrounding village of Torba is low-key and unhurried compared to Bodrum's busier waterfront, so you get easy access to open water without the crowds. It's a well-used base for 7-day routes through the Bodrum Peninsula and beyond toward the Greek islands.
