Fethiye, a sheltered town at the end of a bay
covered with islands, attracts holiday makers
and tourists drawn by its natural beauty, its
quaint plazas, narrow streets and lively market
place. The surrounding area is rich with beautiful
coves and valleys. Places not to be missed include
Butterfly Valley, home of thousands of butterflies,
and Saklikent, reached only by wading through
the ice-cold waters straight from the mountains.Oludeniz,
or the Dead Sea, takes its name from the still
waters which separate the lagoon from the sea
itself. The calm blue waters and the rugged mountains,
make this one of Turkey's most beautiful regions.
