At the moment seven thirty, I think sunset is about about eight fifteen .

It will depend on the dates in September. The first of September will be about seven thirty sunset and each day it will become earlier, by the end of September it will be about six forty five sunset. If you booked about six it would cover all bases with time to spare!   :)  Twilight starts about five and  by the end of the month it will be five thirty. Twilight is when it starts to become pretty I personally think.

If type 'sunset times fethiye turkey' on any search engine you'll find plenty of information.

Your choice. They collect or you can get a taxi.

Exactly the same as us, we've never been :o

I think they pick up but there is a minimum number required for that.

I found them on FB, contacted them & they have got back to me, they collect there will be 4 adults one child, they're happy with that number, think i'll book a bit closer to the time in case we get forgotten! We don't fly out until 16th September, it really can't come quick enough.. We're booking the Dalyan adventure with animal too, supplies child seat for Lacey and a visit to the turtle sanctuary/hospital is included in the day, really getting excited, at 52 years of age you'd think i'd have grown out of getting over excited when we go away  ;D ;D

I've seen a call button / intercom to get a lift from the main road to the Sundial. If you get the Tasyaka dolmus, you get off at the first (new) roundabout, just before the road starts to go up the hill towards Ovacik. The call button is just to the right of the roundabout

I'm pretty certain the call button is no longer provided.
There used to me a nice little Pergola for you to sit in while you waited for the pick up - but this is now pretty much derelict and all the signage has been removed.

We went there last week and had a fabulous meal in great surroundings. Very laid back and atmospheric. Highly recommended.

( Despite the lady on the lady on the table behind us complaining about everything ..... and the kids from the next table chucking the sun bed cushions in the swimming pool. I don't know how the staff kept their cool to be honest.......)

Be aware that the pick ups are not private. The ones we saw were in a minibus. You have to go to certain designated pick up points ( eg a nearby hotel) - they do not go to private addresses. This means the guests arrive in mini waves and it seems you are then tied to certain departure times. We went by taxi and it suited us much better.

The Sun Dial should be on everyone's Bucket List.

Well, she must have been very uncomfortable.  ;)
