Fethiye's harbour town charm and the famous blue lagoon at Oludeniz anchor one of Turkey's loveliest corners. It is also a corner where cash goes furthest, so buy Turkish lira before travelling; a commission-free online provider such as Travel FX sorts it before the flight.
Tandem paragliding from Babadag, twelve-island boat trips, sunbeds on the lagoon and entrance to the beach itself are typically paid in lira. Smaller operators sometimes discount for cash.
The Tuesday market is a highlight for spices, textiles and produce, and it is strictly a cash affair.
