The Blue Lagoon is one of the best places in the world to do absolutely nothing but soak up the sun amid stunning natural surroundings. Ideal to sit and watch the paragliders coming in to land from Babadag mountain whilst taking a break from the sun, or even party to the early hours of the morning. The dolmus, the local bus, leaves every five or ten minutes from Ovacik to Oludeniz.

These are elaborately carved and an especially remarkable; one is the tomb of Amnytas dating from the 4th century BC built in Doric architectural style. It is well worth visiting.
