Its romantic name the valley got due to the extraordinarily beautiful tiger butterfly of the «Arctiidae» family. Most of tiger butterflies can be seen in early June.

(Fethiye City Center)
Fethiye is natural harbour city in the western Mediterranean. It is a very popular holiday center with its magnificent natural beauty and ancient Lycian towns. Ölüdeniz, considered as the most beautiful beach in Turkey, is nearby. Fethiye is a very popular place to start a yacht cruise. If all places and all seas were known by a color, Fethiye’s color would be turquoise.
The word turquoise, a blue that has more than a hint of green, comes from the blue used in the Turkish tile work. The most beautiful shade of the color blue came and settled on the water of Ölüdeniz (Dead Sea). Towards evening, around sunset, you witness such a wonderful turquoise that you can never see on any other seas.

Gobun stands out compared to other coves thanks to its unique geography, and its water depth actually resembles that of tropical regions rather than the Mediterrenian sea. This small and narrow cove is accessed through two high hills. Being one of the most sheltered coves of Gocek, neither the wind nor waves can enter the cove. As a result, Gobun Cove is wonderfully tranquil and calm.
