Fethiye are home to an uncountable diversity of natural
and historic places of interest. For this reason we
recommend that visitors see the FETAV region guide and/or
the existing abundant literature (the region has been
very well documented by both Turkish and foreign
travelers and researchers in several languages) for
detailed information on the region. From Pastoral Vadi
it is possible to reach canyons, beaches and several
typical Aegean-mediterranean villages on foot, arriving
and returning within one day. Other options include
visiting the artisans of the hand-woven “dastar” rug in
Uzumlu (15-20 km) or the nomads who live in kara tents
25 km away; or, depending on the season one can attend
the cherry festival in Nif.The area has a typical
Meditteranean climate; the winter months are mild (0-10
C) and rainy while in summer the average temperatures
range from 30-35 C. In the straits where Pastoral Vadi
is situated, spring is long and accompanied by the cool
breeze that in fact blows in every season.
