From Fethiye, the
coastal highway heads
southeast along the coast to
Kalkan, Kas, Demre, Olimpos and Antalya.
This is the longer but scenic way to
travel between Fethiye and Antalya.
The
inland highway climbs
into the mountains past Tlos,
over Karabel
Pass (1300 meters, 4265
feet), across broad yaylas (high
mountain fields and pastures), through
the town
of Korkuteli, then down to sea level
at Antalya.
The mountain scenery is
fine for much of the ride, and travel
time on this route is hours
less than the coastal highway (see below).
Bus and car are
the way to get to
Fethiye by
land. The nearest airport is
40 km west (25 miles, 1 hour)
at Dalaman.
Or you can come by yacht.
In summer, there are sometimes ferryboats between
Fethiye and Rhodes,
Greece. Click here for details.
There is no train service to
any point along the western Mediterranean
coast.
