Marmaris Parking Map: 6 Places to Park
We drew the map ourselves from OpenStreetMap data. Orange pins are public parking places, navy pins are supermarket and shopping-centre car parks. The dashed orange line is the paid street parking along the seafront, and the hatched area is the old town and bazaar, where you should not drive in.
| No | Where | Type | Walk to the castle |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Seafront road, Atatürk Caddesi | Street parking, paid (MUTTAŞ) | About 1.4 km, 15–20 min |
| 2 | Çıldır, 107. Sokak | Open car park; listed as a municipal car park | About 1.1 km, 13–15 min |
| 3 | Kemeraltı, next to Sabancı school | Summer car park, privately run | About 550 m, 5–10 min |
| 4 | Migros, Tepe | Supermarket car park | About 800 m, 10 min |
| 5 | Netsel Marina and mall | Customer car park | About 800 m, 10 min |
| 6 | İçmeler, behind the beach | Open car parks, many of them paid | In İçmeler |
Prices and opening hours change from year to year: read the sign at the entrance and, if there is an attendant, ask the price before you drive in. Supermarket and shopping-centre car parks are for shoppers, so don't leave the car there for the whole day.

How Does Parking Work in Marmaris?
- Paid street parking: kerbside parking in the centre is run by MUTTAŞ, a company of Muğla Metropolitan Municipality. In 2025 the press reported that on Atatürk Caddesi the first 20 minutes were not charged and a fee by the hour applied after that; check the current prices on the sign.
- Summer car parks: private car parks open on empty plots and gardens in summer. In summer 2026 the hourly prices of some made the local news for being high. Ask the price before you go in and keep the ticket.
- Supermarket and shopping-centre car parks: places like Migros and Netsel have car parks for customers. Fine for a short shop, not for parking all day.
- Hotel parking: ask when you book whether your hotel has parking. Some small hotels in the centre have none; then use a car park nearby.
Where Not to Park in Marmaris
A badly parked car can be fined and towed away. Don't leave the car in these places, even for a few minutes:
- Pedestrian crossings, junctions and corners
- Bus and dolmuş stops
- In front of garages, hotel entrances and building entrances
- On the pavement and in disabled bays
- Where there is a "No parking" sign or no-parking lines are painted on the kerb
- The narrow lanes of the old town and the bazaar: don't drive in, park nearby and walk

5 Hire-Car Tips to Avoid Parking Trouble
- Get the car at your hotel: hotels in Marmaris and İçmeler are free delivery points, so you won't look for a space in town on arrival day. All points are on the delivery points page.
- Choose a small car: a small car is easier in narrow lanes and tight car parks. See the options in our fleet.
- Set off early: parking at the bays and in Turunç fills up towards midday.
- Go into town by dolmuş or on foot in the evening: leaving the car at the hotel is the easiest.
- Take a photo of where you parked and of the ticket: you'll find the car easily and have proof if you need to dispute something.
