Datça peninsula contrasts with bustling Marmaris. On local calm beaches spend holidays mainly local Turkish families. Peninsula is definitely worth a longer visit, but even during a day trip you can visit here most of the attractions. The trip is a nice combination of driving along a road full of nice views surrounded by limestone mountains and pine forests, swimming in nice beaches and a possible visit to the ancient ruins of Knidos.
