Selimiye is one of those rare destinations that has largely escaped mass tourism — a tranquil fishing village with traditional stone houses, a small harbour, and some of the clearest water on the Turkish Aegean coast. It is an ideal choice for travellers seeking authenticity and peace.
Selimiye is approximately 100–115 kilometres from Dalaman Airport. By private transfer, the journey takes around 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 40 minutes.
Selimiye's small harbour is still used by local fishing boats and a handful of gulets. The waterfront is lined with simple, excellent fish restaurants where the daily catch is served fresh.
The bay at Selimiye is sheltered and the water is exceptionally clear. There are several rocky platforms and small beaches perfect for swimming and snorkelling.
The village itself is a delight to explore on foot, with traditional stone houses, narrow lanes, and an overall atmosphere of quiet authenticity rarely found in Turkish resorts today.
