Kabak is a small village in Lycia on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey, 20 km south of Ölüdeniz and 35 km south of Fethiye. Officially it's called Uzunyurt, which comprises Kozağaç, Kirme, Hisar, Faralya (separately described), Kızılcakaya and Kabak. The upper village is a scattering of pansiyons along the road, which deteriorates into a dirt lane and descends to the beach settlement or Kabak Koyu. Time was it had a hippy vibe and next-to-nothing prices, but nowadays, it can feel touristy, with prices to match.
