This
stretch of the Turkish coastline is known as the Turkish
Riviera orTurquoise Coast and stretches from Fethiye in the
west right through to the Syrian coastline in the east. Without
doubt one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline anywhere
in the Mediterranean.The area from Fethiye to Kemer is known
as Lycia and has Turkey's most dramatic coastline with mountains
falling away into crystal clear seas. Summer temperatures
average 30-40°C with a winter average of 15°C. The village
of Hisarönu and Ovacik are located on a plateau 1,000ft above
sea level under Mount Babadag. All around there are magnificent
views of pineclad mountains with a cooling breeze coming
from the sea in the summer.

Fethiye Once
a minor market town
and fishing village, Fethiye has become
a thriving centre in recent years, mainly
due to the fast growing popularity of
the nearby resort of Oludeniz. This dates
back to the 6th Century BC and traces
of the ancient settlement can be seen
around the town.This area is now very
popular with the English, in particular
the urban area of Hisaronu partly
because it's a working town and is open
all year round.
Uzumlu The village of Uzumlu
is one of
spectacular natural beauty, set in a valley
surrounded by dense pine forests and
rugged hillsides. It has managed to
retain all the natural charm and character
of a traditional Turkish Village and yet
still has the convenience of a modern
town like Fethiye, which is just twenty
minutes drive away.
Ciftlik Pine clad hills surround this rural
location near to Calis. It is an ideal place
for people who want to 'get away from
it all', yet still just a short drive from the
tourist attractions that Fethiye offers.
Calis Time really does stand still!
At least that's what it feels like in the
delightful little resort of Calis which
just oozes Turkish charm with its
laid-back and friendly atmosphere.
The resort comes alive at night with
its many bars and restaurants
offering both Turkish and
international cuisine. For those
seeking a little more adventure a
short ten minute taxi ride will take
you into the bustling town of
Fethiye.
Kas A small photogenic town, first
mentioned in Lycian times as
Antiphellos. Kas still has typical Turkish
scenery - small white houses with
wooden balconies, the traditional market
on Fridays, boats that take you to
different places like Kekova or the Greek
island of Kastellorizon, from its lovely
small harbour.
Kalkan Once the most important trading
port in the Teke Peninsula for the caravans
of the old Silk Road, Kalkan is a smallish
town. A meeting place between the
Mediterranean, Syria, Lebanon and the
east, it is now a tourist centre with
many waterways- popular for boating.
Tourism has been made easier by the
modern road linking it with Fethiye.The
perfect little Turkish port town.
Kemer is situated 55km from the
airport in Antalya. On the way from
Antalya you will drive partly through
the forest while enjoying breathtaking
views of the Mediterranean. Kemer is a
new holiday destination, and is still one
of the smaller and quieter locations on
the popular sunny south coast. Kemer
has something to offer everyone who
prefer quietness instead of a hectic
night life. Whether that be relaxing on
one of the cleanest and tidiest beaches
around or participating in the many
water sport activities.
Side ancient Pamphylia's largest port, is
steeped in history and remains unspoiled.It retains its many Archaeological sites,
many in the process of being restored.
The climate is warmer on the
Mediterranean
coast
creating a longer season and with all year access to
Antalya airport, just 40 mins away. It's a
peaceful, attractive, and cultural resort,
with many fine sandy beaches and golf
courses nearby.
Belek is a modern resort
situated 35km from Antalya. Boasting six championship
golf courses and many more in construction,
this area is most famous for its
high quality golfing.Most hotels lead
down to the beaches,which are long
and golden. Pine and eucalyptus forests
create a beautiful backdrop to this new
resort.
- Alanya,
A large popular resort Alanya,
lies at one end of a rocky promontory
which juts into the Mediterranean. It
boasts one of the impressive 13th C
fortresses of Selijuk. The city's walls are
punctuated by 150 medieval towers.
Alanya is a beautiful holiday centre with
modern hotels and many fish restaurants,
cafes and bars.With great night life, Alanya
also has the added advantage of being
close to the all year round airport at
Antalya.
