Walking Along the Shore
A long walk along three kilometres of natural beach, from the stream in the north to Olympos in the south. In the cool of the morning you can watch for loggerhead nests and cool off in the clear water.
Your own corner, tucked into the garden
Stretching a full three kilometres from north to south, Çıralı's beach is a natural shingle-and-sand shoreline far from the tourist crowds. Set out early in the morning and you'll find it almost entirely to yourself; in the summer season when Caretta caretta nests are under protection, you can witness these extraordinary creatures too.
At the southern end of the beach lies the entrance to the ancient city of Olympos. Those wanting to extend the walk can pass through the ancient city and continue on into the forest and the starting points of the Lycian Way.
