Fethiye lies on the northwest of the Taurus Mountains, where a fertile valley opens towards a large bay with its numerous small islands.
The Mediterranean climate with an avarage of 30 degrees Celsius in summer and mild, rainy winter support a rich flora. Lush green meadows and the variety of spices that grow here not only spoil the eyes but also beguile with their smell. The "Blue Lagoon" of Ölüdeniz is often referred to as the heaven on earth and rightly so: because nowhere else one can meet such a beach glitters with such a blaze of green and blue tones.
