Halikarnas
(http://www.tt-group.net/v...) the name of the huge, outdoor night club the largest in the world, they say. it is for the trendy, young euro crowd and is especially busy in the peak season. however, the entry price is extremely expensive, and your stay at the club will generally be shortened by the ridiculous drink prices and the lack of places to sit down.
Bodrum Marine Club
Is a club built into a large boat. the boat is a catamaran style, with a glass deck for the dance floor. at night the boat sets out to a point in the harbour where lights have been set into the ocean floor, pointing up. the local fish have learned that this is a good spot to hang out and get scraps thrown overboard, and you can see them swimming along under the dance floor. watch out for the ticket hawkers set up on the streets in town though, if you arrive before the peak season hits they will go to great lengths to sell you a ticket. claims of a "special party" that night will be made, often mentioning a big name european dj like tiesto. when you get on the boat you'll find it's just an ordinary night, no special party, and especially no tiesto. if you go back to the ticket stand the next day to confront the person who made the false claims, they'll suddenly forget how to speak english. continuing to harass them will result in a grudging admission that there was a "schedule change". i don't doubt that this club fills up and has great parties when there are lots of people in town, but if you're there in late march - early june, don't bother.
