Ölüdeniz 2026 Guide: Belcekız and Kumburnu
Fethiye reminds everyone of Ölüdeniz first. It has two main beaches. However, their vibes are very different. One is the public Belcekız Beach. The other is the protected Kumburnu Lagoon.
You must know which beach fits your style. Thus, your holiday will be more relaxing. For this reason, we prepared this 2026 guide.
1. Belcekız Beach: Adrenaline and Sea
Belcekız is the wide public beach at the entrance. Furthermore, it is the landing spot for paragliders.
- The Sea: It deepens quickly. It often gets wavy. The water is cool. Therefore, water shoes are recommended.
- Pros: Entry is free. You can spread your towel and sunbathe. Moreover, watching paragliders is a joy.
- Cons: The wavy water is not ideal for children.
- Crowds: It gets busy in the afternoon. Yet, it rarely feels too tight due to its size.
2. Kumburnu (Blue Lagoon): A Calm Sanctuary
This area is inside the Nature Park. It has an official gate.
- The Sea: It is like a calm lake. There are no waves. The water is shallow. Consequently, it is great for families.
- Pros: The sea is flat on windy days. In addition, pine trees offer peace.
