Antalya Airport to Ölüdeniz: how long, how much

Ölüdeniz is about 215 km and 3.5 hours from Antalya Airport, over the mountains to Fethiye and then over one more hill to the lagoon. From Dalaman it is about an hour, so Antalya is the long way round.

The route

The car takes the inland road via Korkuteli and the D350 to Fethiye, skirts the town and climbs through Ovacık and Hisarönü before dropping down the steep, winding road to the Ölüdeniz seafront.

Where the hotels are

Beach hotels line the Ölüdeniz promenade; most apartments and cheaper hotels are in Hisarönü and Ovacık on the hill, 10 minutes above the beach.

Tips for this transfer

Book ahead and give the exact hotel; the last part of the road is steep and narrow, and shuttles that serve many hotels on the hill can take much longer. Compare with the Dalaman Airport to Ölüdeniz transfer.
