A visit to the deserted village of Kaya (the rock) is not to be missed. It can be reached by dolmuş from Fethiye (15 km) or on foot from Ölüdeniz (8 km). Its 3,500 houses were originally inhabited by Greeks. In 1923, after the exchange of populations between Greece and Turkey, its 25,000 inhabitants had to leave, and Turks from Greece never wanted to settle there. The town became a ghost town. This village is declared a protected area. At the foot of the hill, after a beautiful track that leads to a small creek, a bistro allows you to quench your thirst. An art camp for students has been created (Kayaköy Sanat Kampı/sanatkampi.com).
