From Fethiye, Katrancı Bay is a short 20-minute drive. Taxis are available, and minibuses heading toward Göcek often stop near the entrance, but walking from the main road may take 10–15 minutes. Renting a scooter or car gives the most flexibility, especially if you plan to explore nearby bays.
Early morning is the best time to enjoy quiet beaches, soft light, and cooler weather. Late afternoon is also beautiful, with long shadows and calmer crowds. Midday can be hot in summer, so shade is valuable. The park is at its most vibrant between May and October.
