The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
The bustling town and harbour of Fethiye is 18 km away from Uzumlu and can be reached by regular dolmus or by car. Here you can stroll along the harbour, shop in the quaint bazaars, visit the famous indoor fish market for lunch or just sit, relax and watch the world go by. Visit the large outdoor market on Tuesdays and have fun bartering for all your goods.
Fethiye is a lively Turkish town of around 100,000 inhabitants. It is the perfect mix of a sophisticated and ethnic life for living and for holidays.The town has an area called Paspatur which is a bazaar area catered for the needs of all tourists with real atmosphere. The main street and all side streets are full of big and small traders in everything you can possibly imagine. Right in the centre of town is a combined permanent fish; fruit and veg market where the bargains are incredible. ASDA watch out you cannot roll back your prices this far. You can buy your fish or shellfish in the market and one of the restaurants surrounding the market will create a delicious meal for you for around £2. Tuesday is the big market day. Maybe 500 to 700 traders, all selling their wares.
Big bargains but please haggle sensibly and compare prices before you buy, great atmosphere. Originally Fethiye was known as Termessos and there are still remains and an amphitheater from the Lycian period. Some 3 to 4000 ex-pats live in and around Fethiye permanently with this number doubling at least during spring to autumn.
Fethiye must be one of the best sailing centres anywhere in the world with steady winds, crystal clear water and the most incredible scenery. Oludeniz- The Jewel in the Crown
The world renown resort of Olu Deniz 'the blue lagoon' with its sheltered beach and lagoon which is ideal for children and swimming, it is one of the most photographed places and is featured on the front of nearly every Turkish holiday brochure, Olu Deniz which inappropriately means dead sea is the very famous picture you will see in most advertisements for Turkey. It is very beautiful and the sea really is this colour. All around Olu Deniz are the Towering Taurus Mountains. From Babadag Mountain there is the world famous Paragliding centre, also micro lighting and Paracending.
Uzumlu area
“Üzümlü”. It has authentic village houses, a traditional life style and local people. We believe this place will be one of the most popular spots for rural & ecological tourism in the near future. It is a big responsibility for local authorities to regulate carefully and keep the style as it was in Ottoman times.
There are old village houses to purchase , to renovate and there are new housing developments to invest in , or finally you can buy land and build your own home in the traditional Ottoman style.
There is the countryside ,and there is culture from ancient Cadianda and Ottoman Üzümlü to modern Yesil Üzümlü. Üzümlü village is located on a plateau, which it shares with neighbouring village of Incirkoy. Üzümlü literally translated means “ grape yard or place of grape”. As it’s name infers you will see grapevines scattered around all parts of the village and will find the locals will be happy to share their produce with you. Incirköy means “fig village”. This village is located at the opposite side of the Üzümlü plateau.
The population of Üzümlü and Incirköy are 1765 and 971 respectively. The locals are adept at utilising the land to make their living. Produces include wine, grape-juice, vinegar, olives, olive oil, tobacco, fig and fig products as well as weaving “Dastar – scarf”.
At an altitude of more than 500 metres Üzümlü and Incirköy villages enjoy very pleasant summer nightime temperatures in marked contrast to the coast where temperatures are much higher. During the winter months, a 20-minute journey will take you towards Cameli, the beginning of the snow line, which boasts snow-peaked mountains and incredible views and where you can find many fine slopes on which to toboggan or snowboard. The attractive rural villages of Üzümlü & Incirköy are around 15 kilometres from the coastal market town of Fethiye.
The nearest airport is Dalaman, 60 kilometres from Uzumlu or Incirköy approximately one hours travelling time. Dalaman airport is well served by tourist charter flights and by Turkish Airways.
