Fethiye
Lagoons, Lycian tombs and the start of the coast's most beautiful sailing.
Why Fethiye
Fethiye holds the turquoise coast's most photographed treasures — the Ölüdeniz lagoon, the ghost village of Kayaköy, and Lycian rock tombs cut high into the cliffs above the town.
It is also the launch point for gulet cruises along hidden coves, the single most memorable way to experience this coastline. We plan Fethiye for the water and the quiet.
What to see in Fethiye
The places worth your time — and the ones we build a day around.
01
Ölüdeniz lagoon
The still, impossibly blue lagoon that appears on every Türkiye poster — best seen paragliding down from Babadağ.
02
Butterfly Valley
A steep-sided cove reachable mainly by boat, home to tigmoth butterflies and a waterfall at its head.
03
Kayaköy ghost village
Hundreds of abandoned stone houses on a hillside — a moving, silent record of the 1923 population exchange.
04
Lycian rock tombs
Temple facades carved into the cliff above Fethiye in the 4th century BC, lit gold at sunset.
05
Saklıkent Gorge
An 18-kilometre canyon you wade into through icy mountain water, walls rising hundreds of metres above.
06
A blue-cruise gulet
Days spent between the coves of the Göcek and Fethiye bays, swimming off the deck, sleeping under stars.
