It’s another of those Fethiye news posts where we need to squish two months into one. Life is just like that these days. Lots going on that we want to blog about. Lots happening that isn’t for the blog. And then we take a short break in Datça. Before we know it, two months have …
There’s much to see and do in Dalyan. And high up on your itinerary should be an exploration of the ancient ruins of Kaunos. On the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List since 2014, the Kaunos ruins date from various periods. A real treat for history enthusiasts. But, as well as losing yourself in the ancient …
About an hour’s drive from Fethiye, just west of Dalaman Airport and east of Marmaris, sits one of our favourite little towns, Dalyan. Whilst we knew of its existence and proximity to Fethiye, before we moved here in 1998, we’d never visited the small resort town of Dalyan. And when we did finally go a …
Our monthly Fethiye news articles seem to come around very quickly. But yet, today, sitting typing this article, I’m thinking back to the beginning of May and it seems like such a long time ago. Friends were here and it feels like an age since we saw them. All good, then, that life isn’t passing …
Let’s go for a walk around the Fethiye Peninsula… Known to locals as Yarımada (Half Island) , Fethiye Peninsula is a forested promontory dotted with bays offering stunning views and services ranging from the simple to the sophisticated.

For our Fethiye news updates, I keep a little list in my notepad of anything and everything worth throwing into the articles. Regular readers will know we had a mid-March update and, with April being the month where everything – and everyone – starts to wake up, it’s all been happening and we’ve got all …
Lokum Kokoreç and Lokum Döner are places that are trying to appeal to the masses – and succeeding. Most Turks don’t need that appeal. They’re more than aware of how tasty this offal and meat is. Tempting the taste buds – that’s what Yerguzlar Caddesi is becoming an expert at. Yerguzlar Caddesi is the street …
Have you tried a broccoli frittata recipe? Most of the recipes on this blog are Turkish recipes. You know, what with us living in Turkey and everything. We do, occasionally, however, cook dishes of the non-Turkish variety. And more often than not, these dishes will not make it onto these online pages. But there are …
Eggs and spinach for breakfast, anyone? Or lunch or dinner, for that matter. If you’ve never tried this spinach and eggs recipe, we’re sure you’re going to be converts once you do make it. We go through spells where it’s on our menu more than once a week. And that’s no bad thing because this …
It always feels strange doing our monthly round up of life in Fethiye when it’s not the end of the month (we’ve done a few of these in the past and will no doubt continue to do so). But then life doesn’t work in neat 4 week blocks, does it? Any end of February round …
