Fethiye’s Most Beautiful Beaches
2 October 2021

Belcekiz Beach is the main Oludeniz beach and is the first beach you will come across when travelling down the main road from Fethiye Town. The beach is beautiful, even if the water here can be a bit choppy at times. The paragliders also descend down from Babadag to this beach and rest on the seafront.
This beach boasts many restaurants, cafes, shops, bars and hotels nearby.
Adrenalin and action is always close at hand here with many companies offering a range of experiences from Jeep Safaris, paragliding, boat tours and many more.
Every morning during the summer season, many tour boats leave from the shore here.
It’s a lively place and gives a real holiday vibe and stunning views from every angle.
You can enjoy a drink and immerse yourself in the sparkling Mediterranean, or simply watch the world go by in one of the cafes or restaurants.
The water here is clean and perfect for snorkeling but the waves can be choppy and the water does get deep fairly quickly.

Oludeniz Blue Lagoon is absolutely stunning and is one of the most photographed places in Turkey’s southern coast. The water is azure blue and completely transparent.
The Blue Lagoon is separated from the main beach by a narrow sand channel and the waters are shallow meaning no boats are allowed here. Canoes and paddle boats can be hired for those who wish to explore. Snorkeling is also very popular here due to the crystal clear waters.
The Blue Lagoon is a fantastic place for photographers and for those who wish to relax in a calm and tranquil location.

Kidrak Beach is simply stunning and a real place of natural unspoiled beauty.
There is a restaurant and picnic area in Kidrak Beach, so it makes for a perfect place to chill and enjoy the beautiful views out over the water.
The beach is found just 2km southeast of Oludeniz and can be easily reached by road or boat.
Known as ‘Paradise Beach’ it certainly lives up to its name with deep turquoise waters, fine pebbled sand and surrounded by Pine trees and high cliffs.
Enjoy a lazy picnic, snorkel in the clear waters or simply lay back and enjoy the sunshine.
There is a small fee to enter this beach, but it’s definitely worth it.

Butterfly Valley Beach is easily one of the most picturesque places in Fethiye, and the beach itself is no different.
This beautiful bay boasts stunning turquoise waters and is extremely clean.
You will find a small shop and café here for refreshments or souvenirs.

The water is calm and surrounded by cliffs and lots of precious flora and fauna. The sand is fairly smooth so it’s comfortable under foot.
Butterfly Valley and its beach is definitely a place you should experience whilst in Fethiye.

The Kabak Bay is located in the east of Oludeniz in the vicinity of Faralya village.

This unique bay has olive and oak trees that are identified as monumental trees.
If you love nature, you will love Kabak Bay because it’s not only a place for relaxing or lounging in the sunshine, it’s a place for exploration and discovering interesting plant and animal species.
