Bono Good Times Marina
This Marina front restaurant and bar is very popular with locals and tourists so a reservation is a must! Currently it is joined with the club next door, HIX, to allow for a larger outdoor seating area to accommodate everyone as well as a rooftop terrace. They have a DJ on every Friday, Saturday and Sunday evening playing a mix of well known Turkish and English music. They also own a brand new burger restaurant further up the Marina called Felix, this has beautiful decor and also has a DJ on weekend evenings.
Kumka Beach
6 minutes away from Marmaris Marina this beach bar is hosting live acoustic music on both Friday and Saturday starting at 8:30pm. With a wide range of cocktails and a chilled out atmosphere it is also a lovely location to swim in the sea or their outdoor pool and watch the sunset.
Queens Stage
On the lower level of this steak restaurant there is an indoor stage and seating area hosting live Turkish music and DJs playing well into the evening. The dress code here is smart casual and again we would recommend reserving as it can get busy.
Palace Beach
This upmarket beach club located half way between Marmaris and İçmeler now has DJs playing music till 2am. It’s the only one on the list with an entrance fee as it is in a hotel however it is also the only place I’m aware of currently open this late. The dress code here is smart casual.
Casa Gaia
This cute bar situated in İçmeler is open both Friday and Saturday. With friendly staff speaking both English and Turkish and gorgeous signature cocktails this bar is the perfect place to relax this weekend. They also do great cajun spiced chips if you’re looking for a snack with your drinks.
