Babadağ (“Father Mountain”) is a limestone massif on the Lycian coast; paragliding grew around Ölüdeniz in the late 20th century, converting old lookout slopes into launch sites.
Conservation
Ölüdeniz and surrounding coastal areas have protected zones for nesting sea turtles and fragile dune ecosystems—follow local guidelines, avoid trampling vegetation, and respect nesting seasons.
