Fethiye / turkey

The port of Fethiye (ancient Telmessos), known also as 'The Land of Lights', lines a wide bay embraced by mountains. 

Ancient Lycian tombs can been seen cut into the rocks on the mountainside overlooking the town where life centres round the harbour, long promenade. 

There is also a network of old streets behind the waterfront where you can find colourful markets an array of shops selling jewellery, leather, spices and textiles. 

Nearby to Fethiye, there are many local bays to discover providing perfect seclusion in a dramatic landscape. These include Kabak, Gemiler, Soguk Su, and the azure Aquarium Bay. The Lycian Way between here and Kekova is a particularly beautiful stretch of the coast and a popular route for the Blue Cruise.
