Before visiting Kızkumu, be sure to wear comfortable footwear for walking across the sandbar, as the area can be slippery, especially when wet. Although there are small shops and cafés around the area, it’s a good idea to bring your own snacks, water, and sunscreen to stay prepared. Keep in mind that there are limited facilities, so if you're planning a long stay, consider bringing an umbrella or a hat for shade. Also, respect the natural beauty and avoid littering on the beach.

Getting to Kızkumu from Marmaris is straightforward. You can take a taxi or a local dolmuş (minibus) that regularly operates between Marmaris and the nearby village of Turunç. The journey typically takes around 30 minutes. If you have a rental car, drive south along the scenic coastal road toward Turunç, following the signs to the beach. Once there, the beach is within walking distance from the small parking lot, and it’s easy to explore the sandbar and surrounding area on foot.

The best time to visit Kızkumu is during the spring or autumn months, when the weather is warm but not overwhelmingly hot. These seasons offer pleasant temperatures for walking along the sandbar and swimming without the summer crowds. If you're visiting during the summer months, early morning or late afternoon visits are ideal to avoid the peak heat and larger crowds. Be sure to bring plenty of water, as it can get quite sunny and hot, especially from June to August.

Kızkumu makes for a great half-day or full-day excursion from Marmaris. Many local tour operators offer day trips that combine a visit to Kızkumu with stops at nearby attractions, such as the village of Turunç or the picturesque Içmeler beach. You can explore the beach, enjoy a leisurely walk across the sandbar, and perhaps stop for a meal at one of the nearby restaurants. For those interested in nature, a boat trip to nearby coves and beaches is also a popular addition to the day’s itinerary.
