The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region

Olu Deniz is a stunning resort on Turkey’s Turquoise Coast, famous for its white sandy beach, beautiful tree lined lagoon, mountain views, water sports and paragliding.

The Turquoise Coast (Lycia) is well known for its stunning scenery with clear blue sea, and sandy coves framed by dramatic mountains. The history of Lycia is fascinating, rock tombs are everywhere and there are many sites to visit.

The Lycian Way long distance footpath (rated by the Sunday Times as one of the top 10 walks in the world) starts from near the villa. It follows 500 km of ancient footpaths that linked the villages of the Turquoise Coast and is a real must for anyone who likes walking.

You can do a day walk along part of it from the villa, returning by bus or can do a longer walk, staying overnight in local accommodation along the way. We have done this ourselves and can advise you on where to go.

The Turkish port of Fethiye is a 15 minute dolmus trip from the villa. Fethiye boasts an attractive marina, many authentic Turkish restaurants, shops and an enormous weekly market. No visit to Fethiye is complete without dinner at the open air fish market where you select your fresh fish and take it to any one of a number of restaurants around the square to be cooked as you wish.

The Olu Deniz area

Villa Mina is situated in the hills above Olu Deniz, and is just 5 minutes by Dolmus from the beach. There is a weekly market selling a variety of goods which is ideal for buying clothes and gifts to take home. Start your holiday off with a relaxing turkish bath and massage at Fethye's ancient turkish bath.

Local activities include the following:
~ Paragliding from Mount Badabag (1,900m) acknowledged as one of the best paragliding sites in the world
~ Watersports (scuba diving, sailing, banana boats, canoeing)
~ White water rafting
~ Quad biking, Jeep safari
~ Pony trekking, mountain biking

Excursions can be arranged to a number of places including:

o Dalyan ( riverboat trip along the reed lined Dalyan river, ancient city of Caunus, rock tombs, mud baths, riverside restaurants)
o Saklikent gorge
o Kaya (ghost village in the beautiful Kaya valley and the setting for Louis de Berniere's 'Birds Without Wings')
o Patara ancient site (Santa Claus’ birthplace), and beach (voted “best beach in the world” in Sunday Times)
o Other historical sites such as Xanthos, Letoon & Tlos are nearby
o Further afield (1 to 2 day trip) – Ephesus, Pamukkale and Cappadoccia

Activities and excursions can be arranged locally and are very reasonably priced. A boat trip along the coast is a must (beautiful scenery, fishing, snorkelling with a wonderful lunch included).

“Lovely property in a great location” A beautiful, new property in a great location near to a lively town and fabulous beaches. Plenty of bedrooms, clean and well-kept. Outdoor seating area is great and the pool is a real asset. Service was excellent with a pool man arriving most days and able to help you with anything you needed to know. Loved the fact there was so much to do in the surrounding area and the beach was so close, although you do need a car to get to some of the places of historical interest. We would definitely go there again as there is still so much to see and there is plenty to interest teenagers as well.

'We had a really lovely time here. The villa is beautiful and its in a fabulous location for sightseeing. We particularly enjoyed visiting the many historical sites and the wonderful scenery We were a little worried about booking a villa unseen since this is the first time we had booked a holiday like this. However, Jo made it very easy for us - booking taxis and providing lots of local information and we will definitely come back again'
