Photographer’s Note

Ölüdeniz - Fethiye - TURKEY ' 2009

Ölüdeniz is a small resort village in the Muğla Province on the South West coast of Turkey on the Aegean Sea to the south and the high, steep sided Babadağ Mountain, 14 km (9 mi) south of Fethiye. The town is a beach resort.

Ölüdeniz remains one of the most photographed beaches on the Mediterranean. It has a secluded sandy bay at the mouth of Ölüdeniz, on a blue lagoon. The lagoon is a national nature reserve and building is strictly prohibited. Ölüdeniz is famous for its shades of turquoise and aquamarine, and is an official blue flag beach, and is frequently rated among the top 5 beaches in the world by Travelers and Tourism Journals alike. The resort is also famous for its paragliding opportunities. It is regarded as one of the best places in the world to paraglide due to its unique panoramic views, and the Babadağ Mountain's exceptional height.

Harikulâde, biraz da ürperti verici bir manzara. Denizdeki maviliğin yanısıra, lagünün içindeki yeşil-mavi renk geçişleri de tam bir göz ziyafeti sunuyor. Tebrikler.

Merhaba Mehmet,
I always wondered how difficult or easy it would be to take pictures while paragliding.
Anyway there's no POV that can ever compete with yours.
The view on the coastline with its peninsulas and islands is extraordinarily splendid. The blue of the sea in contrast to the long strip of white sand and to green hills is brilliant.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Mehmet
This is so impressive especially as I visited this place 20 years ago and there weren't all these complexes with swimming pools. It's so built up now. What hasn't changed is the beautiful white beach and the turquoise water. The quality of this aerial view is excellent.
Regards
Nikki
