Bodrum is a picturesque city on the southwestern coast of Turkey, situated on the Bodrum Peninsula in Muğla Province on the Turquoise Coast (Aegean Sea). Known for its beautiful beaches, turquoise waters, whitewashed buildings, and rich ancient history, Bodrum was once home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World — the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus. The city is also famous for the 15th-century Castle of St. Peter (Bodrum Castle), a well-preserved Crusader fortress. A popular summer playground for the Turkish jet-set and international visitors alike, Bodrum combines a French Riviera-style sophistication with an authentic Aegean character. The surrounding peninsula is dotted with charming fishing villages, marinas, and beaches ranging from the lively shores of Gumbet to the upscale resort town of Türkbükü, often called the St. Tropez of Turkey. Bodrum has a vibrant and gay-friendly reputation relative to other Turkish destinations, with a variety of LGBTQ+-welcoming bars, clubs, and beach areas, particularly along Bar Street (Barlar Sokağı) and in the nearby town of Gumbet.
