Paramotor Launch Sites
The best flat-field and beach launch sites for paramotor around Fethiye.
Çalış Beach North End
Beach launchLong, flat beach with consistent onshore breeze in the morning. Good for coastal runs north toward Fethiye harbour. Best in early morning before the sea breeze strengthens. Busy with beach-goers after 09:00 in summer.
Fethiye Agricultural Plain
Flat fieldThe flat farmland east of Fethiye offers several field launch options. Good surface in dry season. Verify permission with landowners before launching — these are private fields.
Kemer Valley
Valley floorWide valley floor with multiple field options. More sheltered from sea breeze. Good thermal potential later in the morning. Longer drive but worth it for a full-day flying session.
Ölüdeniz East Valley
Valley floorFlat areas in the valley east of Ölüdeniz. Must coordinate with Babadağ airspace — keep at low altitude and avoid the free-flight approach corridor. Early morning only when paragliding traffic is low.
