At the nothernmost tip of the bay of Fethiye lies the picturesque harbour of Gocek. Principally a yachting centre, during the summer the marinas are buzzing with activity as the boats load up with provisions for the Blue Voyage, and the cafes and restaurants along the harbour do a lively trade. The bays of Gocek are some of the beautiful and historical places in the region.
It is believed that Gocek and its environs were the ancient city of Daedalos. In the record of Strabo and Herodotus, Daedalos is mentioned as a Lycian port. Unfortunately, not much of the city has survived to the present day, probably due to the earthquakes in ancient times.
