General Marmaris has all the bustle of a large tourist resort, a bit of a culture shock after arriving from weeks in secluded anchorages, but still enjoyable for a day or maybe two. Take care when anchoring to leave plenty of room for the day boats which lay very long anchor chains back to the quays.
