Gocek 12 Islands
Kizilada
There is a lighthouse on this island, which was named Kızılada when the sand and pebbles on its shores turned red at sunset. Since the east coast of the island does not get waves, this area is suitable for swimming.
Deliktaş Island
Deliktaş Island, located northwest of Kızılada and one of the famous stops of Fethiye Ölüdeniz, is the island preferred by local and foreign tourists who especially want to dive.
Yassica Islands
Yassıca Islands, consisting of five small islands, is an indispensable route especially for daily boat tours. Since the islands are very small, they are not named individually and there are no facilities on these islands. The largest of these five small islands has a small natural pool at the end of the sandy beach extending into the sea. The distance to the nearest island is only 12 metres and you can easily swim here. If you can swim for half an hour, you can visit the other four islands.
Olive Island
Olive Island is located at the southern end of the Yassıca Islands and is distinguished from the other islands by being the only privately owned island. There is an olive pressing workshop on the island, which is thought to be from the Ottoman Period.
Tersane Island
Tersane Island is the largest of the islands in Fethiye. Before the First World War, there was a Greek village here. After the war, the island was evacuated during the exchange period, and now you can see the remains of the shipyard and the old observation tower. There are two sheltered bays on the island. These bays are called summer and winter harbours by sailors and attract the attention of local and foreign tourists, especially for blue voyages.
Pig (Prince) Island
This island, where boats can easily dock and anchor thanks to its harbour closed to the wind, is called "Pig Island" or "Prince Island" in reference to the wild boars living on it and the prince who is thought to have once lived here.
Göbün Bay
Göbün Bay is a long bay covered with pine and olive trees with a very narrow entrance. It is located to the south of the Pig Island. Tourists who want to see rock tombs and ancient ruins can see this unique view by landing from the end of the bay. Blue cruise boats mostly anchor in this bay.
Cleopatra Bath Bay
Cleopatra Bath Bay is a bay where blue cruise boats, daily tour boats and private yachts stop by to swim on the shore and explore the historical ruins. There are the ruins of the Byzantine Monastery, half of which is under the sea and the other half above the sea. You can also reach the ruins of the ancient city of Lydae in this bay with a half-hour walk up the hill.
Bedri Rahmi Bay
Bedri Rahmi Bay is located opposite Tersane Island. This bay, whose original name is Taşyaka Bay, is identified with the fish figure made by the painter Bedri Rahmi Eyüpoğlu on a rock and is called Bedri Rahmi Bay. There are restaurants on the bay and piers for yachts to dock.
