Oludeniz hotels

Hotels in Oludeniz

On the east coast of Turkey, Olu deniz's main attraction is its famous picture postcard bay, known as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. This resort also boasts a promenade lined with small shops, cafés, bars and restaurants, but there are many other beaches to find and a huge amount of trips and activities on offer. All of this makes Olu deniz an ideal beach holiday.

The Blue Lagoon

The Blue Lagoon of Olu deniz has calm, shallow waters which makes it ideal for children and a variety of water sports, such as kiteboarding, windsurfing and pedalos.

Butterfly and Kidrak Beach

Less than 7km away is a canyon surrounded by approximately 350m high mountains, where you can see beautiful jersey tiger butterflies. Transportation to the bay is either by boat or by a rather tricky path, but once here you can enjoy its gorgeous waterfall, large beach and clear water. 3km from Oludeniz, the secluded Kidrak Beach or 'Paradise Beach' is a romantic area which maintains an unspoilt beauty.

Jeep safari and paraglide

Travel up Babadag Mountain, which towers above Oludeniz, on a 50-minute ‘jeep safari', an unrivalled opportunity to take in the extraordinarily beautiful Turkish mountainside scenery. The mountain is a geological marvel, with incredible thermals making it reputedly the best site in Europe, if not the world, to paraglide. Gracefully glide tandom above the scenic bay for up to 45 minutes, virtually unheard of in any other location in the world. A trip of a lifetime.

Dalyan Mud Bath and Turtle Cruise

Cruise down the peaceful Dalyan Delta, passing the ancient rock tombs of Caunos. Then, take an all-over mud bath and a dip in the sulphur springs. If you do this, you will supposedly feel and look 10 years younger. Enjoy a buffet lunch served in Dalyan village, followed by a relaxing swim at Iztuzu beach, one of the last nesting places of the endangered Caretta Caretta turtles, which can measure up to four feet.

Food, drink and nightlife

Olu deniz is a main Turkish resort, and as such there is plenty going on in the way of food and drink. There are restaurants to suit everyone's tastes, with excellent standards and a huge range of Turkish cuisine and international foods. The area is the home of the olive, the aubergine, the vine and crisp, honeyed Baklava. Turkish cuisine offers kebabs, mezes and olive oil-drizzled salads.

The Olu deniz beach bars open early in the day, which allows you to enjoy the turquoise sea and blue sky at your leisure. After 10pm these bars liven up with happy beach grooves, funky tunes and a happening party atmosphere.

On the seafront in a beautiful location, Buzz Seafood & Grill has long had a reputation for fresh, innovative seafood and grill fare, not to mention delicious speciality cocktails. With indoor and outdoor waterfront dining, Buzz is a great place to relax.
