You run a few light steps, the wind at your back conspires with the wing, and within heartbeats Babadag drops away beneath you. The mountain’s ridgeline—1,969 m of limestone and scrub—gives up its loafing goats and radio masts to open sky, and suddenly the sea unfurls: the Blue Lagoon’s turquoise bowl, the crescent of Belcekız Beach, and the green throat of Butterfly Valley sliding past like a map.
