Hi Chris,

I always pronounce it 'Overchick', but if you want to be really correct you should say 'Ovvajig'.

Hi you will love it in Ovacik. Be sure to visit the Mirage Bar, which has the Sky sports, and say hello to my friend Sam who runs the bar.

Where are you staying??

Anything you want to know about the resort, or Hisaronu or Olu Deniz, fire away, will be happy to help.

Hi Chris,
i agree ovacik, is pronounced ( or as near as we can get to it is )ovachic, however the local dialects change a little and they cannot pronounce ' v ' they speak turkish quicker than we ever could so it sometimes comes out as it has already been pointed out as sounding like owachik.
:wink: kev :wink:

your nearest market is on mondays and that is in hisaronu restaurants are all very close but the main ones are hisaronu or fethiye but on the main road there are restarants ,on tuesdays there is the big market in fethiye or on a saturday they have a turkish market with better prices in tasika there is also a market in calis trust me you will be spoilt for choice on places to eat and drink in the surrounding area dolmus buses are cheap form of travel

Hi
if you are in to trips, i suggest you do not book through your rep, but go down to Olu Deniz and book them there.
Try a place called Easy Riders, which is on the beach front. The trips are really cheap and really good.
they also have a branch in ovacik, saw it when we were there in Oct.
Dolmus to Olu is 2.5ytl from Ovacik. or it costs roughly 15ytl for a taxi each way.
Hisaronu is a 10 min downhill walk from Ovacik along the main road. There is no lighting across the village dirttracks.
Another recommendation would be the peking chinese restaurant, the first one you come to as you enter Hisaronu from the main road from Ovacik.
It is £5 for the buffet eat as much and order as much as you like, with a free bottle of wine thrown in. Can honestly say it was one of the best chinese meals I have ever had, and such good value and service.
Any other questions, dont hesitate to ask.
