Turunc is located on the Eastern coast of the ancient “Loryma Peninsula” today called “Bozburun Peninsula”. For your information, the last letter of Turunc is pronounced "ch". The village, which forms part a beautiful and charming bay is situated on the Aegean coast. The bustling town of Marmaris is only a 40 minutes bus or boat ride away. In contrast to this overcrowded tourist town, the visitor can enjoy a quiet undisturbed stroll along the seaside, the main road or the inland side of our pretty village.

Turunc is one of the first villages, that has organized in time and mostly by itself the enormous financial funds to built a modern biological wast water system, without drainage into the sea. All inhabitants of the community share the consciousness to preserve an unspoiled environment. Over the years it has become a trademark of Turunc from which all - locals and tourists alike - greatly benefit.
