Question 3

Is Fethiye walkable?

Accepted Answer

Yes, within the centre. You can walk between Paspatur old town, the marina, the fish market, and the rock tombs, though the climb to the Amyntas tomb is steep.

Dolmuş minibuses run from the central station to Ölüdeniz, Kayaköy, and Çalış Beach, and a water taxi links Çalış and the marina. For comfort or day trips along the Turquoise Coast, consider a private tour in Fethiye.
