Ortakent Producer Trail
An inland morning into Bodrum's working hinterland, Saturday's producer market, a lokum atelier, a wine bar in a former olive press, ending at Dibeklihan's stone courtyard
Bodrum Mavi Dondurma
Drive the inland road from Turgutreis toward Bodrum, the workshop sits next to the Gürece muhtarlık. Ask Arzu Hanım which flavour came off the kazan that morning; the balbadem and the seasonal dut are the two to chase.
Gürece Mah. 6. Sk. No:9/3, Bodrum
Bodrum Tohum Derneği Üretici Pazarı
Arrive by 09:00, the peninsula's serious cooks (and a few of the marina chefs) clear the heirloom domates and the deniz börülcesi inside the first hour. Bring cash and a basket; ask the growers what they'd cook with what's on the table.
Ortakent Pazaryeri, Cumhuriyet Cd., Ortakent, Bodrum
Dibeklihan Kültür ve Sanat Köyü
Time a Friday-night visit around an opening, the four gallery rotations turn over every three weeks and the concert bill is the most serious on the peninsula. Stay through dinner at Pera Thai or Dibek Sofrası rather than driving back to the marina.
Yakaköy, Cenap Tezer Cd. No:44, Ortakent, Bodrum
