Stay at a private villa in Kalkan Turkey and visit Butterfly Valley near Fethiye, a hidden gem of Turkey's Turquoise Coast. Deep, steep and accessible only by boat or via the Lycian Way walking trail, it is a protected site because millions of butterflies - over 30 daytime species including the Jersey Tiger Moth and 40 nocturnal species - come here to breed between June and September.
Construction is prohibited, so come by boat, bring a tent and camp overnight or stay in one of the renowned tree-houses provided, to appreciate this natural phenomena for yourself. In addition to the clouds of butterflies fluttering by, there are also two small waterfalls to discover, providing a refreshingly cool shower after a hike through the secret valley.
Boats leave daily from Belcekiz Beach in Oludeniz and the turquoise water of the little bay means swimming here is also delightful. There is a small restaurant in the valley where you can have lunch if you choose. Oludeniz is 83km from Kalkan; you would catch a boat there to get to Butterfly valley.
