Best time to go to Bodrum

Climate-wise, the Bodrum peninsula is one of the best spots in Turkey. Because of where it sits, there’s pretty much always a breeze – which is particularly welcome in the summer months when the temperatures hit the 30˚C mark. It’s a great place to visit in spring and autumn, too, when the average temperature is still a very toasty 25˚C.

Passports and Visas

Your passport will need to be valid for at least 150 days (5 months) from the date you arrive and there should be a full blank page for the entry and exit stamps.

British Citizens travelling to Turkey for tourist purposes can travel without a visa for visits of up to 90 days in any 180-day period.

We recommend you visit the FCDO website for the most up-to-date information - www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/turkey.

Don't forget to arrange your travel money and insurance before you go.

Health and safety

You should take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance to cover you while you’re away. For the latest health and safety information, visit www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/turkey/health
