About Fethiye
Fethiye anchors Turkey's turquoise coast, best known for the Blue Lagoon at Ölüdeniz, where paragliders drift down from Babadağ mountain onto a curve of pale sand and impossibly clear water. The town is also the starting point for the Lycian Way, a long-distance trail past ancient rock tombs, and for boat trips through the Twelve Islands' quiet bays.
