The popular resort Fethiye is located at the head of a beautiful bay strewn with islands. A hill crowned by the ruins of the crusader fortress built by the Knights of Rhodes overlooks the little port. Above the town, (called Telmessos in antiquity), numerous Lycian rock tombs, reproducing the facades of ancient buildings, were cut into the cliff face. There’s a number of places to be seen in the surroundings, such as the Blue Lagoon, and the ruins of Xanthos, and Letoon.
