When driving to Bodrum, note that yellow curb markings mean no parking. The city center and waterfront area have paid parking zones — head straight to an organized lot to avoid fines.

During tourist season, parking spots fill up fast and fines are actively issued. Arriving early or using parking lots on the outskirts and walking to the center is a practical strategy.
