Aksazlar Beach & Park

Peninsula cove closest to town centre, featuring lush lawns under pines and wide views of Fethiye Bay

Aksazlar Bay is the first and closest cove you encounter when driving onto the Fethiye peninsula, just 4 kilometers from the town marina. Backed by tall pine woods, Aksazlar combines a pebbly sand beach with well-maintained green lawns where guests can lounge beneath natural tree shade. Looking back across the tranquil water, you enjoy panoramic views of Fethiye's harbor, mountains, and Sovalye Island. The water is virtually waveless, making it a hotspot for paddleboarders.
