Olympos

Olympos is a touristic destination on the south coast of Turkey, very close to Antalya.

Hitching In
Because Olympos's entire economy is based around tourism (There are only bars, restaurants and pansyons), more than likely, your ride will not be going to Olympos, but to or from Antalya. (We wrote Antalya on our sign as it was apparent that a lot of locals do not know exactly where Olympos was -- Alecofnz).

Get dropped at the top of the road to Olympos. From there, it's an 11km hike down the hill (and is quite dangerous as the road is very thin in a lot of places). The best place to thumb a ride is about 200m down the hill from the bus station; there is a large shoulder on the side of the road where cars coming down will see you and have room to pull over.

Sleep
To sleep on the beach is complicated because it is closed from 22 to 5. You also have to pay to access it from 12 to 19. A good place to camp can be found at the entrance, near Kadir's tree houses. When you arrive in Olympos, Kadir's tree house is to your left, you walk a few meters, you will have a path to the forest to your right. Follow the path, you will go in the direction of outside of the city. On your right, you will find some places suitable for camping and after a little abandonned house.
