Fethiye is a city along the Turkish coast that offers historical structures for those who enjoy exploring and learning about culture and history. Beautiful beaches and thrilling water sports are also part of Fethiye tourist attractions that entice people who desire active vacations as well as those who want to enjoy what Mother Nature has to offer.
Fethiye's ancient name was Telmessos – a prominent city of the god Apollo. The people were highly cultured and had rich lives specifically during Hellenic and Roman civilizations. Proof of this is seen in the ruins like the Roman Theatre, Lycian sarcophagi, and fortresses. The tomb of Amyntas is the very first attraction you'll see upon entering the city. Amyntas was Alexander the Great's commander and was considered the Telmessos governor. Aside from interesting ruins, enticing beaches, for example, the Olu Deniz, (the best Turkish beach) may also be enjoyed. Paragliding and diving are popular Fethiye activities that shouldn't be missed.
