Scuba Diving
If you're feeling adventurous, try a spot of scuba diving in the Fethiye area. Good Turkish guides are the ideal people to make your diving a day to remember. The visibility of the water, in the shallow places and at depth, is really good and the temperatures are good too.
Good schools to dive with are Mermaid Diving Club , European Diving or Elite Diving Centre, but there are quite a few dive schools in the area. European dive boats are a good size and are run very efficiently with mostly Turkish crews and international dive masters and instructors.
No matter which company you decide to dive with, the experiance will far outweigh the cost, which is roughly between £30 to £45 for the full day. This includes pickups, lunch and 2 to 3 dives.
Paragliding
Sea, beach, hotels, bars, pubs, festivals and sports. All in one. Oludeniz. Also well-known worldwide as Blue Lagoon. A well known paragliding place which also holds festivals twice a year with pilots from all over the world showing their best skills. Its not easy to describe paragliding or the feeling of flying but from 7 to 70, every single person should try this once in their life!
This is not an extreme sport. Actually paragliding is one of the easiet sport to learn. Imagine it as a sight seeing tour from air. You will take off from the top of Babadag mountain which is 1600mt (or 1900mt depends on the weather conditions) high and start a slow descent floating to the sandy beach with highly experienced pilots.
Trust us, you will fall in love with the panoramic views of the surrounding.
A video and many photos of your flight will be recorded and available on your request.
We will collect you from your hotel and drive you to Oludeniz. After the short meeting we will jump on the trucks are drive to top point of mountain. After preparation of parachute, harnes and helmet and a short education to passenger we will take off and start to fly. Our journey will take 25 mins to 45 minutes maximum. Depends on the weather conditions pilots can change the flight duration for security reasons.
This is a “once in a lifetime experience!”
Jeep Safari
Jeep Safari Fethiye is one of the most entertaining excursion of Fethiye. Its full of nature, fun, sightseeing and history.
The day will start with pick up from your resort / hotel and all the Jeeps will meet at the meeting point to start the journey all together as a convoy. An open top, fully serviced and maintained Jeep with professional drivers will take you to Tlos for the first stop of the day.
Tlos was an important ancient city of Lycia. It was a popular city in the history which goes back to 2.000 BC. Ottomans and Byzantines settled in this city. There are many interesting ruins in the city such as baths, theatres, gates, tombs, stadium, gymnasium and more. Our driver will take us to a top from a nice path where we can see another ancient Lycian city of Xanthos and surroundings.
The view of Xanthos, farms and the valley is fascinating. After a walk and open-top sightseeing tour in this amazing city of Tlos we will drive to next stop.
Saklikent Gorge. The gorge is the 2.nd longest gorge of Europe. It has an freezing water comes from Taurus mountains and its the melted snow. You can walk into the canyon to the gorge. Or if its cold for you, you can stay around and relax. This rural Turkish countryside, amazing structure of gorge and pine forests with a fresh air will make you hungry.
After the gorge trip a fresh open buffet lunch at a scenic riverside restaurant will be served. Than we will follow the river road down to Patara, another ancient city of Lycia and the longest sandy beach of Turkey only 18 km. There will be a relax and swim break here. On the way to Patara there will be a Mud Bath stop on request. You can have a mud fight here :)
After Patara we will drive back to Fethiye to our hotels. Be prepared for that windswept look when you return.
