Tour Overview and Departure Details
Your day begins with hotel pickup from central Fethiye or Oludeniz. Upon arrival at Belcekiz Beach, you’ll board a large wooden boat decorated in pirate style. The boat is equipped with shaded seating, open decks, and essential onboard facilities. Departure is scheduled for 10:30 AM, and the total tour duration is around six hours.
This tour is suitable for those seeking a relaxed, multi-stop sea experience. Whether you’re interested in swimming, walking among ruins, or enjoying the view, the itinerary accommodates different preferences.
Route and Stops: Five Unique Coastal Locations
The boat tour includes five distinct stops, each offering different scenery and activities. From freshwater bays to ancient ruins, the variety ensures a balanced and engaging day.
Stop 1: Butterfly Valley
The journey begins with a visit to Butterfly Valley, a scenic cove accessible only by sea. Guests can swim, relax on the beach, or take a short walk into the valley toward a small waterfall. This area is known for its natural setting, not for guaranteed butterfly sightings.
Duration: Approximately 45 minutes.
Stop 2: Cold Water Bay
Next is Cold Water Bay, named for the natural spring that feeds cool freshwater into the sea. The temperature difference is notable and refreshing, especially during warmer months. It's a quiet bay ideal for a short swim.
Duration: 30 minutes.
Stop 3: St. Nicholas Island
This stop offers both historical and scenic appeal. St. Nicholas Island features remnants of Byzantine-era churches and tombs. Adventurous visitors can take a short uphill walk to see panoramic views, while others may choose to swim near the rocky shoreline.
Duration: 45 to 60 minutes.
Stop 4: Aquarium Bay
Known for its clarity and calm waters, Aquarium Bay is a peaceful spot for swimming or snorkeling. The seabed is visible from the surface, making it easy to observe marine life without diving deep. Guests who stay on the boat can enjoy the tranquil scenery from the deck.
Duration: 30 to 45 minutes.
Stop 5: Camel Beach
The last stop is Camel Beach, a sandy area with calm waters and a relaxed atmosphere. It’s a good place for one final swim or sunbathing. A decorative camel statue adds a playful touch and is popular for photos.
Duration: 30 minutes.
Return and Transfers
After the final stop, the boat returns to Belcekiz Beach around 4:30 PM. Guests are then transferred back to their accommodations in the Oludeniz or Fethiye area.
