Paragliding over Ölüdeniz

Turquoise lagoons beneath the mountains.

Fethiye is a working harbour town with Lycian rock tombs carved into the cliffs above it. A short drive away, Ölüdeniz’s Blue Lagoon is one of Turkey’s most photographed beaches, with paragliders drifting down from Babadağ mountain.

The area is also the start of the Lycian Way, a long-distance walking trail along the coast.
