Butterfly Valley

I would say it's much better to view this area from above, rather than below. We hiked along the cliffs on the south side and enjoyed fantastic views, met lovely people along the way, enjoyed the nature, spring flowers, interesting paths with rocks and tortoises to negotiate and just a wonderful experience in nature.

Amazing view only from the top. Be careful with the kids and the rocks. The drone guys there have unreasonably high prices for a video. Enjoy. Take some pomegranate juice on the top. They are delicious!

The waterfall was small due to the heat, but the gorge itself is incredibly beautiful. The trail is quite comfortable, although towards the end you do have to climb a bit—it's not too difficult, though. There are indeed butterflies in the gorge, not as many as there used to be, but you can still spot a few. Overall, it’s a lovely place to visit for nature lovers, with stunning views and a pleasant hike!

This beach has clear water, very big rocks on the sea ground wear water shoes. I was disappointed when we walked the trail to see the butterfly valley in the gorge area. There was hardly any there. The area looks like a nice relaxing, quiet place to stay and camp if one wants. We came in a smaller boat. However, there were large party boats that dropped off people for an hour. The music is extremely loud and it's such a small beach there was no need for that if you want to enjoy the atmosphere.

This place is a hidden gem. We took the water taxi to come see the butterfly valley which cost us 300TL per person return so we could properly enjoy and explore the place without a time schedule. The ticket gives you access to everything including the sunbeds and access to the path to the waterfall (which would normally cost 15TL per person as it’s a natural reserve). It’s an amazing and really beautiful place. The walk up the waterfall is a treck and I recommend good shoes to climb the rocks up the mountain. If you come on tour with the pirate boat, i would advise you stay by the beach because I don’t think you would have enough time to go up the waterfall, enjoy and return. I witnessed people running after their boat because they departed without them. It took us 20-30 minutes to walk up there. The place is very busy in the morning with all the pirate tour boats until 12:30, 13:00 o’clock when they leave. Then it’s quieter with a fair amount of people until 15:00 15:30 in the afternoon when more pirate boats arrive. All and all we really enjoyed our visit. Highly recommend visiting this place if you are in Oludeniz.

Very good view but only you can take a look from top (faralya city) or go there by ferry ⛴️

Expected it to be more beautiful than this. The view from up is incomparable, much more clearer and quieter. You should definitely see it from up, specially on summer. If you want to see the valley and to take pictures, I suggest you drive up to Faralya, where you will see the valley much better. We arrived afternoon at the valley, and it was so hot, didn't feel any breeze. You can pay 15 TL to walk and see the waterfall, but in the summer there is no water 😂, don't even think about it. The beach is crowded and the shops are overpriced.

Beautiful place, nice and relaxing, full of natural beauty. Unfortunately we didn't see butterflies as they only appear in may but it was still very nice experience. If you follow the path you will experience breath taking views and after about 40 min walk you will find a small waterfall. Very nice place but only recommend private tour very late afternoon as during the day this beautiful place gets spoiled by noisy boats full of tourist who don't respect beauty of this place.
