Kabak is a village 8 km further to the south, literally a dead-end as the road from Ölüdeniz through Faralya ends there, giving way to complete wilderness (which is, however, still accessible on foot via Lycian Way). Kabak also has a canyon (called Kabak Koyu) similar to the Butterfly Valley (with cliffs opening to the sea at one side, with waterfalls and so on…), though Kabak’s canyon is more accessible than the Butterfly Valley: a dirt road—which will behave very badly on cars, so leave it at the upper village (from where a dolmuş with a fixed price of 30 or 35 TL no matter how many passengers it carries can be caught)—connects the village with the canyon. However, Kabak the village is less accessible than Faralya, the tarmac road goes only as far as the southern exit of Faralya (the direction of Kabak), turning into a bad road (which is, however, wide enough for two cars passing side by side). (There is now a new nice road since 2010) Henk) There are also minibuses there from Faralya. In both the canyon’s beach and upper village of Kabak, a number of guesthouses can be found.
If you are in for a little bit of adventure, you may return back to Ölüdeniz by hiking the Lycian Way instead of taking the minibus. When hiking in this direction (i.e. Faralya to Ölüdeniz, or south to north), there is only a short (albeit, steep) ascending section right at the beginning of the trail just out of Faralya, then it’s almost always gently descending all the way to Ölüdeniz through a beautiful pine forest, along some amazing cliffs, and with unforgettable views over Blue Lagoon. Remember that the last 8-km towards Ölüdeniz (the section after the mountain hamlet of Kozağaç) has no water source along the path, though.
