A morning in Marmaris begins with the harbor thrum — gulls wheel, diesel idles, and the Mediterranean pushes cool air across the quay. Within 20–30 minutes the town falls away and the boat finds quieter water; the sea takes on a glassy patience, only punctured by the bob of lines and the occasional pop when a fish takes the bait.
