Marina Yacht Club

Several venues share one site. At the centre is the Jazz Bar, where live music starts at 22:00 every day of the year. Around it are three restaurants: Coozin for international dishes, served from breakfast onwards with every table facing the stage; Gozo for Spanish cooking; and Roof Marine, a rooftop terrace serving Mediterranean fish and meze. Cafe Coozin, by the entrance, does coffee, cocktails and ice cream.

The club also runs Merqezart, a gallery with three exhibition rooms and a new show each month.

For the bar, come after dinner for the live set and order a cocktail. Earlier in the evening, Gozo opens its menu with sangria and tinto de verano, and Roof Marine is the table to book for fish and meze above the marina. Gelato from Mua Gelatieri is made fresh each day in the club’s own workshop and sold at Cafe Coozin.

The club is on Neyzen Tevfik Caddesi within Milta Bodrum Marina, a short walk along the quay from the berths. If the yacht is anchored off Bodrum, your captain can arrange a tender landing in the harbour. The castle and the old town are about ten minutes away on foot along the waterfront.

The club opens every day from 09:00 to 01:00. Tables can be booked online through the website or by phone, which is sensible on summer evenings if you want a seat near the stage.
