Local dialect of Turkish is highly different from the official standard which is based on Istanbul dialect, and with much of its vocabulary being totally incomprehensible to even non-local Turks, it can even be objectively regarded as a language on its own some half-jokingly prefer to call it Muğlaca, i.e. "Muğla language", instead of the usual term of Muğla şivesi, i.e. "Muğla dialect". However, all people in the region, except perhaps older ones living in remote villages, can speak standard Turkish albeit with a slight accent usually, and, thanks to heavy tourism in the region, if you don't intend to hike between mountain hamlets, English will likely be sufficient to communicate anyway.
