THE RESORT
Olu Deniz takes its name from the beautiful blue lagoon located a few hundred yards from the main town.

The beach itself stretches for several miles, but the most popular section is the lagoon with its stunning backdrop of mountains and pine forest.

This area has been designated a National Park and there is a small entrance charge, but it is well worth paying - there are shaded areas suitable for picnicking, showers and snack bars.

In the main town, the seafront is crammed with provision stores, bars and restaurants, many with roof terraces perfect for enjoying the sunset and the wonderful views.
