Feast on Greek Grub
Neos Marmaras is like heaven for foodies, and there are two spots you absolutely can't miss by the sea: Ta Kymata and Okyalos Seafood Restaurant. At Ta Kymata, dive into their fresh seafood, like the famous grilled octopus or the mouthwatering baked sea bass with lemon and oregano. And don't even get us started on their moussaka, layered with tender eggplant, savoury ground meat, and creamy béchamel sauce. Then there's Okyalos Seafood Restaurant, where you can dine right by the sea and sample their succulent grilled octopus to mouthwatering seafood pasta, but the real star of the menu is their signature seafood platter, featuring a tantalising array of grilled fish, shrimp, calamari, and more.
