Göcek – Fethiye Turkey

The myth says, that Icarus fell into the sea when he tried to fly away from where he was imprisoned

Göcek is one of the ancient Lycian settlements found between those of Fethiye and Caunos. Gocek used to be a small village and started to be known when a group of artists cruised along the Turquoise coast, later to be called “Blue Voyage”. It was known as “Kalimche” during ancient times. The myth says, that Icarus fell into the sea when he tried to fly away from where he was imprisoned. During the Ottoman Era chromium was extracted in mines nearby and loaded onto ships in the natural harbour. Gocek provides a beautiful, secure, natural harbour due to its many islands and coves that are secluded in a large bay.
