Bodrum in October 2025 – is it worth going to rest? Weather and reviews, air and water temperature, is it possible to swim, prices in hotels and excursions. How to do and what to see in a vigor in mid -autumn, where to go nearby and in Turkey in general, says Eurotravel.
Like most of the other Mediterranean resorts, in early October, beach activity in Bodrum freezes. Tourists are returning to their homeland, hostels dismiss part of the state and folding sunlocks, leisure institutions turn off activities.
Judging by many years of realities, this approach, if not fully justified, then explain. After all, air temperatures fall in comparison with the summer, there is less sunlight, and the sea in the Bodrum in October (no earlier than the middle of the month, however) cools to not quite comfortable values.
Or is it no longer today? We are convinced that everywhere there is global warming?!
We figured out the question, and this is what turned out!
Weather in Bodrum in October
Will be considered Just chic A person who is not striving for chocolate tanning and in general with difficulty tolerating heat. Since the daily air temperature does not hesitate, but almost in a military-willed “holding system”.
For example, in almost any year, from +25 to even +29 degrees Celsius invariably recorded street thermometers in Bodrum in early October. And only towards the end of the month the weather forecasts begin to promise no more than +22-24 ° C.
At night is much colder – from +16 to +22 ° C. That against the backdrop of minor precipitation and low humidity is hardly able to light a “red light” in front of the mental gaze of those who intend to relax in these parts of tourists.
Yes, someone will reasonably say that in October in Alania is warmer. As in Kemer, for example, or Antalya, Beleke, Side … Well, we will answer that humidity is higher there!
The climatic condition of the Bodrum is in a child-of-heartedly soft, and even in the summer at the resort It is rarely stuffy – What is described in almost every first review. What can we say about the middle of autumn?!
After all, it was not for nothing that the ancient Greeks here founded a huge colony? And they did not longed to settle south south.
Rains Rare (3-4 days per month), solar light, perhaps, is a lot. And in the middle of the day, the Bodrum Sun in October will even seem excessively aggressive to someone.
What to take with you
Nevertheless: a light jacket or jacket, windbreaker is not an extra object in the suitcase of a vacationer who goes to the shores of the Aegean Sea in the middle of autumn. To take warm clothes with you to Turkey in October there is no reason – in our particular case.
Since the maximum bad thing that happened in the Bodrum of the Mid-Arena version in recent years is night lowering temperatures to +15-16 ° C. Yes, by the way, and in Marmaris in October – not cold!
Water temperature
Not spoiled by the tropics to the vacationers of the sea in the October Bodrum will seem not just warmed up to the tolerant temperature – it will not cause any complaints at all. In fact-what complaints can water be caused by a temperature of +23-25 degrees Celsius, what to complain about here?!
Often in Thailand or Dubai, tourists can consider the Aegean Sea in October cool. For it is really slightly invigorates and refreshes – Especially in the early morning.
However, choosing time for bathing is not particularly necessary-after 10-11 in the morning and literally up to sunset, you can take sea baths. It is only worth adhering to a simple rule: from 12 to 16 days, it is not in an open place.
And, even more so, do not roast in the sun. It is not just bright here – furious. And even closed by clouds in mid -autumn will bring you a good such a painful burn.

Prices 2025
It all depends on what kind of point you will go to visit the vigor of the October version. If from Moscow, then for a flight to both ends you will have to spend about 400-500 € (direct-wretched flights, class “Economy”). A journey from London and a number of other Western European cities will require the cost of transporting there and back in the region of 300 €.
About 30 € more will have to be paid for a transfer from Milas Airport to the resort (35 km). However, this article can be avoided. Along the way, creating a new one – to rent a car.
Moreover, the cost of the day of the “Baby” rental like Renault Clio in 2025 grew slightly, to ~ 25-30 € per day.
It is more difficult to do – to come to Bodrum from Istanbul. First, looking at the amazing places of the main Turkish metropolis, and then put them in memory in the right order, resting on the beach.
As for the Bodrum hotels, to find an inconsistent option in October – Not a problem. For example, we like inexpensive apartments in the İlya Apart 2 complex.
Located – yes, on the hill. But here they take completely reasonable amounts (in October from 60 € for two and from 70 € – for three) for placement in a spacious apartment overlooking the sea!
In the load on this option, in a good way, it would be worth getting a car. And the money for her rental will easily pay off, you only need to make a couple of long trips: for example, to Dalian or Pamukkale.
To rent spacious BD Suites apartments in the city center will turn out for 120+ € per day. However, almost certainly on the October dates you will be expected to be a significant discount.
Cruise for the whole day on the Aegean Sea to the island of Orak costs from 20-25 € per person. In comparable money, a walk on the ship and on the surrounding – picturesque – bays will cost.
What to do
Although Bodrum is considered a youth resort as such active entertainment with the exception of discos and nightclubs, there is no. Therefore, tourists who are not inclined to hang out by nights, tune in to measured rest And diligently examine a few attractions.
It seems like the castle of St. Peter, the heritage of the Knights of the Gospital, who were crowded on the island of Rhodes. Another worthy object for visiting is the Museum of Underwater Archeology within the Citadel.
Be sure to see the tourist in Bodrum ruins of the fortifications of the ancient Galicarnas, about which the first impulse of the army of Alexander the Great once crashed. The walls are extremely poorly preserved, but the Gates of the Mindos are in a slightly better condition.
Probably, it’s worth looking in Bodrum in October (non -Zharko?) And what remains of the legendary Galicarnassk Mausoleum. Especially if you first study the history of the place a little and read something about the “seven miracles” of the ancient world.
There is an ancient amphitheater in the city, and impressive sizes. Once upon a time, more than 13 thousand spectators could be observed for performances in the arena. There is an amphitheater in the north of the city, from its steps an excellent view of the bay opens.
Another popular observation point is the famous Windmarks of Bodrum (Bodrum değirmen). Not as old as the already mentioned sights (XVII century), however, they rise in a place that should certainly be visited.
After all, a wonderful view of both the city port and the sleeping area of the resort, Gyumbet!
Just keep in mind if you climb the top-in the middle-end of October in Bodrum it becomes windy. And sometimes even in the afternoon I already want to throw something on a sleeveless dress or a T-shirt!
Where to go
You can get to Pamukkale and (or) Ephesus. The easiest way, of course, is by car. For it is not too convenient to go to Denizley by public transport.
The time of the trip in Pamukkala and Helcerals along the highway will be about 4 hours – the distance of 270 km. Ephesus distance is smaller, about 180 km.
Both Ephesus and Pamukkale are among the key attractions of Turkey! Which – this is what is considered – You need to see at least once in a lifetime.
Ephesus are the ruins of a large ancient city (possibly the largest Greek colony on the Anatolian Peninsula) a little south of Izmir. Where several architectural monuments are preserved age older than the Coliseum.
And Pamukkale is generally considered almost the “eighth miracle of light” thanks to snow -white travertine pools with thermal waters.
As for Cappadocia, which, thanks to good clear weather in the middle of autumn, also looks very desired, then going to it from Bodrum is far away. In any case, for a 1-2 daytime trip!
