Out and about 3.....

"Hamam" Turkish Bath (Approx £10 Ad, £5 Ch)

You couldn't possibly visit Turkey and not experience a traditional Hamam...........Hopping on a Dolmus (the local Turkish minibus) from the main road you head into Fethiye (will cost you about 3 YTL =£1). and get off at the main Mosque in Fethiye (you can't miss it as the Dolmus terminates here). Ask anyone to point you towards 'Paspatur (the old town) which is just 5 mins walk. Here amongst the narrow streets you'll find the Hamam (again anyone will direct you if asked), where you'll experience a totally unique and relaxing experience which the whole family can enjoy together. Your body will be scrubbed from head to toe stripping you of your dead skin, preparing it for a much deeper and longer lasting tan, which for best effect should be taken early on in your holiday.

Fethiye Market (Tuesday)

Again, hop on the Dolmus and travel into Fethiye to the main Mosque. When you get off, look behind you and you'll see one of the largest markets in the area with almost everything on sale from real fake watches to spices and Turkish delight.
Making a purchase requires you to haggle, and whilst sometimes the sellers can be keen to sell you almost anything, it's a generally light hearted affair and all part of the day's entertainment.
