Fethiye is in Lycia on the coast of Mediterranean. Modern Fethiye is located on the site of the ancient city of Telmessos, the ruins of which can be seen in the city.Telmessos was the most important city of Lycia, with a recorded history starting in the 5th century BC.

Fethiye is a tourist town with an international atmosphere. It has an excellent marina and good night life. The town also serves as an excellent base for touring the inland country-side, and is probably the only city in the world where you'll find sarcophagus in the streets. These pre-Roman Lycian relics are especially spectacular when floodlit at night. The town has a population of around 50,000 but the population increases dramatically during the high season, from April to end of October.
