Milas–Bodrum Airport (BJV)

Milas–Bodrum Airport (BJV)

Inaugurated in 1997 and located 36 km east of Bodrum, Milas-Bodrum Airport serves both regular and chartered flights. To reach Bodrum city centre, you have two convenient options: hail a taxi or hop on the Havas Airport Bus. The journey to the Bodrum bus station typically takes around an hour. There are plenty of taxis awaiting you at both the international and domestic arrivals.

Public Transport

Public Transport

Taking a 'dolmuş' is the best way to get around in Bodrum. These are minibuses — or large taxis — that depart when they’re full and stop where required. Buses leave from the Bodrum bus terminal and run between Turgutreis-Yalikavak and Bodrum. They can be hailed as they pass.

Taxi

Taxi

Taxi cabs are yellow with taxi signs on the roof. They have meters with two different rates: from midnight until 6 am it can be up to 50% more expensive than during daytime. The main taxi rank is at the Bodrum bus terminal, located only 10 minutes from the castle, but you can hail taxis anywhere in town.

Post

Post

Turkish post offices can be recognized by the PTT-symbol in yellow and black. The main post office is called Merkez Postanesi. The big post offices are open 8am–midnight Monday to Saturday and 9am–7pm on Sundays. Smaller offices are open 8:30am–12:30pm and 1:30pm–5:30pm and may be closed at weekends.

Pharmacy

Pharmacy

Pharmacies are called 'Eczane' in Turkish and have a big E sign hanging on the storefront. The general opening hours are 9am–7pm on weekdays and Saturdays, and there is always one pharmacy open on Sundays and at nighttime. A sign on the pharmacy's front door indicates the address and telephone number of the closest pharmacy on duty.
