Kızkumu is one of Marmaris’ most fascinating natural wonders and is located right in the heart of Orhaniye Bay. For this reason, it is widely known as “Kizkumu Orhaniye.” This unique formation attracts thousands of visitors every year and is considered a must-see destination in the region.
The name “Kizkumu” (Girl’s Sand) comes from a local legend. It is said that a young girl tried to walk across the sea to reach her loved one, leaving behind a trail of reddish sand. Today, this legend adds charm and mystery to the area, making it even more popular among visitors.
Kizkumu’s most iconic feature is the natural shallow sand pathway that creates the illusion of walking in the middle of the sea. The water level stays low, making it safe and enjoyable for everyone. Walking along this sandy route while the sea splits on both sides is a magical experience.
Orhaniye Bay is surrounded by pine forests and known for its calm, clear waters. Because of its protected structure, it offers ideal swimming conditions. The scenery is breathtaking at any time of the day, especially during sunset.
During a Kizkumu / Orhaniye tour, boat trips take you to hidden bays, swimming areas, and photo-worthy locations. These tours are perfect for exploring untouched corners of Marmaris and enjoying the turquoise waters.
Orhaniye maintains its traditional village charm. Local restaurants, homemade dishes, handicraft stands, and the warm atmosphere of the village add authenticity to your experience.
The tour includes the sea-walking experience, swimming stops, photo moments, storytelling about the legend, and time to relax. With VIP transfer services, you can reach the area comfortably and enjoy your day without stress.
Ideal for couples, nature lovers, families with children, photography enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to experience the surreal feeling of walking on the sea.
