Orhaniye is a stop or a day trip destination - it is not a resort by itself. People come from Marmaris and Içmeler to make a change in the holidays. The setting of Ohraniye is very nice, inside a small bay of steep mountains, and the open ocean just a few hundred metres out. Orhaniye's main offer is the submerged sand-spit called Maiden's Sand, allowing people to walk almost across the bay. Some promote this as walking like Jesus on the water, but really people wade knee-high. The beach here is not brilliant, water tend to get (naturally) muddy. Water sports are offered, especially jet-skis and tubes, at normal rates.
