Paspatur Old Bazaar & Fish Market
Paspatur Çarşısı / Balık Pazarı
A cobbled-lane market in Fethiye’s old quarter, where you buy fresh fish at the fish market and have nearby restaurants cook it for you. It is a must-do experience.
Paspatur is Fethiye’s oldest neighborhood. Its narrow lanes are lined with souvenir shops, spice stores, Turkish delight shops and bars, and it is lively at night. At the nearby fish market, seafood stalls stand in the middle, ringed by restaurants. First choose your fish and prawns at a stall and have them weighed and bought, then take them to a restaurant, which charges a processing fee to cook them, served with salad and bread. Prices are by weight, so confirm before ordering.
Opening hours
Market open all day; fish market approx. 11:00–24:00
