Fethiye, a city rich in unforgettable sights, will be the starting point of our journey.
This quiet, charming port town enjoys an excellent location. From here, you can easily venture to nearby beaches or explore the semi-ruined remnants of the ancient Lycian culture in this region. The history of these places is unique and dates back to deep antiquity far beyond the Bronze Age.
We would like to present to you a list of historical sights and natural beauties that, in our opinion, must-see along the route. We have created our own top 10, where each place holds equal significance in terms of the vividness of the experiences they offer.
Gemiler Island is located along the Mediterranean coast
of Turkey, south of Fethiye. It is known as the island of St. Nicholas and is separated from the mainland by a narrow sea strait. The island is miniature: only 400 meters wide and 1000 meters long. According to one of the legends, St. Nicholas is buried here. It is a real open-air museum with Byzantine ruins of five churches, with houses inherited from the Roman Empire, a port, waterways, tombs and cemeteries that have been preserved for over 1500 years.
An incredibly beautiful view opens up from the top. There is only one way to reach the island - by sea.
Göcek Bay, in addition to marinas, is famous for its numerous
restaurants with their own piers. You can reach them only by water, as they are hidden in the picturesque bays of the western part of the Skopea Bay.
On our trip, we will stop for the night at the piers of the restaurants Onno and Adaia. In Onno you will be presented with Mediterranean cuisine, delicious pizza and strong Turkish coffee. The panorama from the restaurant is enchanting: you will enjoy breakfast with a view of the blooming bay, where the remnants of Lycian tombs rest on sheer cliffs. This place attracts sailors with its pristine shores, adorned with pine and oleander trees, and the crystal-clear waters that surround it. A leisurely walk into the mountains will take you back to the past again, as it is here that the unique Lycian necropolis carved into the rocks has been preserved. The originality of the forms of the tombs is covered only by the uniqueness of their location.
The first headliner will perform at Fimi island, a private beach club, exclusively designed for a privileged holiday.
Fimi island is a perfect place to spend your day, enjoying the service and all the benefits of a private beach club with
an area of 8000 square meters. The perfect place for dancing, which you will appreciate at the first Escape party. The club attracts a local affluent community. The club was created quite recently, as if with the sole purpose of making its guests taste the joy of freedom. To finally dare to be yourself.
Galini Restaurant. There is a restaurant on the territory of the beach club, which presents not only local cuisine, but also the best dishes of Mediterranean cuisine with a unique twist.
Wall Bay is the most popular bay of the Gulf of Skopeia, located
on the ancient Lycian way (a long hiking trail in Turkey around part of the coast of ancient Lycia). In the southwestern part of the bay are the Byzantine or Roman ruins of a bathhouse, this place is called the baths of Cleopatra. According to legend, Queen Cleopatra bathed herself in them, and the rich content of micro-elements in thermal waters had a rejuvenating effect.
In the northwestern part of the bay is the Adaia Restaurant with a pier where we moor for dinner and a night's rest. But before that, we will definitely meet the sunset with dancing to the set of our DJ. Adaya Restaurant is a space where you can enjoy breakfast in the morning in an authentic atmosphere, have a leisurely lunch under the shade of olive trees and comfortably have a dinner while chatting in the evening. Adaia chefs offer original Mediterranean fish menu, traditional lahmacun - pizza in a stone oven.
Sea Me Beach Club is located in a picturesque bay of Fethiye,
where crystal clear turquoise water is bathed in golden sunshine and topped off with a lush green forest canopy. In Sea Me Beach we will spend the evening listening to the sets of an invited foreign DJ-headliner, and in the morning we will enjoy a luxurious beach holiday.
Restaurant and bar Sea Me. The cuisine of the Sea Me restaurant offers exquisite tastes of Mediterranean cuisine, while the Sea Me bar shares its experience of a unique international mixology.
The final point of our journey is the port of the town of
Göcek, resembling a large fishing village and also known as the "Turkish Monaco."
After mooring, we will have free time for walks and dinner at local restaurants. And in the evening we will finish the journey with a final pool party at the Nen bar.
Göcek has been known since ancient times. This magnificent town is located between Fethiye (in ancient times it was
called Telmessos) and Dalyan (in ancient times it was called Kaunos). According to local legend, it was in the vicinity of Göcek that Icarus landed in the sea after his famous flight, attempting to escape captivity in the tower. It is hard to find a more perfect and romantic place to end our journey.
