Had breakfast there on Saturday, so yes cafes are open. We were the only ones there though! Breathtaking scenery and such a tranquil place, nice and sunny that day as well.

The gorge is normally closed until around April as the water level is too high to walk in there.

Yeah, I went there last year by Dolmus from the mosque in Fethiye. It was great! The Dolmus driver was just ambling along at his usual 17 miles an hour but picked it up on the straight..you know how it goes. I was wondering though, what is at the end of  Saklikent crevice, I only made so far.

lol.it's a flippin challenge i tell you.It took us a couple of hours to get to the end and it was hard going. .Navigating sheer walls and deep rock pools.still can't believe i did it.It was akin to coming out of the dentists without a filling!!We had a guide with us and he definately saved my life a couple of times.Got to a freezing cold waterfall at the end which was quite pretty.I was most upset when we had to turn round and go the same way back.I was expecting an easier route back or at least a coach or even a helicopter would have done. Being a contact lens wearer i didn't relish the thought of throwing myself 8ft down into  rock pools.It was hysterical honestly(can you imagine!!!) I must say though,i was so chuffed that i'd done it and boy did i ache the next day.
