Also the Istanbul Restaurant in Kayakoy.  They have a BBQ night every Thursday with a music.  The BBQ is is three courses and they pick up and drop off.   The cost is 60TL each which includes meal and mini bus.
I think your boys would like it.   Make sure you book in advance, it is popular.

Hi rana , your sons big enough , I recommend doing amateur scuba diving or boat tour can be very enjoyable. I think it will be very difficult traveling alone with 3 teenage boys. good luck  :)

Again, you need to check insurance for Scuba Diving.  We had a friend (he has moved to Australia) He was a scuba diver, but he said he checked out the Scuba diving in Turkey and would not do it and this guy is an expert.

Thanks everyone for your helpful advice. Boys enjoying so far especially jeep safari today. One small complaint we had to pay extra for waterfall 5TL each which we paid but after walking down 300+ steps were then told we needed to rent shoes at 3TL each because the walk to waterfall was rocky. So we actually paid to walk down steps and look at a stream. Bit naughty of them i think and when i mentioned to the tour guide he should tell people before paying he couldn't give me an answer.  :-\

Yes its true. Prof .Diving is dangerous but its only demo diving for amateurs. if you have diving licence and you want deep diving ( more than 10 meters)  a lot of thing is realy too dangerous but if you can safe diving its like a another world and like space.

I dive from Fethiye with a company called European Diving, they have their own dive boat and the most important thing for them is safety. They do a thing called a try dive and I would highly recommend this if the boys fancy it, it is great fun, lunch included. They are easily found on the internet with phone numbers etc. on the website and also pick up and drop off. Well worth a go.

Jacqui, your friend may be right in his opinion. I learned to dive in Fethiye approx. two years ago with a company called European Diving, I done two diving courses with them and their first priority is the safety of their students. In the two years that I have been diving I have dived in quite a few different countries in the world and believe me European Diving is up there with the best of them certainly. So anyone who fancies giving it a go get in touch with them, I am sure they will be pleased to hear from you.

We found the same last year so we are over on Saturday with Sports Direct (other brands are available) ones for £5.  We are down the road from you in UpHolland near Skelmersdale and are brininging 2 15 year old lads and a 12 year old.  Rugby League fanatics so probably doing the same itinery as yourselves
