What's the weather like in Fethiye in December

The weather in FethiyeTurkey, in December is cold but still relatively mild, especially when compared with the weather in the UK this time of year. 

Temperature

The average day temperature is 12°C, which makes this the third coolest month of the year in the resort. January and February are colder, March a tiny bit warmer. At night, the mercury drops to an average low of 9°Che first time it has been below 10°C since last March. In the afternoons, the average high temperature reaches 14°C, which, all things considered, is still pleasantly comfortable. Both the average low and high temperatures tend to decrease slightly in the course of the month.

Sea Temperature

The sea temperature is relatively warm in December, averaging 18°C, but definitely too low for comfortable dips in the Mediterranean Sea. 

Precipitation

There is a fair amount of precipitation in December with an average of 14 days of rainfall and a total precipitation of 124mm. This makes December the wettest month of the year in Fethiye. The probability that rainfall occurs increases slightly in the course of the month, although only a tiny bit.

Rainfall

In the beginning of the month, there is a 40% chance that rainfall occurs. By the end, that chance has increased a little to 44%. There are three types of rainfall this time of year. Thunderstorms are the most common and are recorded on 56% of the days with rainfall. Light rain and moderate rain come in second and third, respectively occurring on 30% and 14% of the rainy days.

Day Length

December is the "shortest" month of the year in terms of day length. December 21 is the shortest day of the entire year, with 9.39 hours of daylight. The other days are only slightly longer. Cloud cover reaches its annual maximum at the end of December, when it's at 79%.

Sunshine Hours

Those two factors are the reasons December is the least sunny of all months. Each day has 7 sunshine hours on average.

If you are in the area for a few days, you might want to explore the areas around Fethiye.  The beautiful resort of Olu Deniz has a beach with perfect places to view the famous Turkish sunsets.  Olu Deniz is only a quick 30 minutes bus ride from Fethiye.

City of Myra

One of the most exciting things you can do is visit the real home of Santa. St. Nicholas, who is known as Father Christmas, lived for a while in a town close to Fethiye and his church is still there. The church, which is located in the City of Myra, is a bit of a drive from Fethiyepproximately three hours awayut is not only a great experience by itself; it is also a great way to see the beautiful coast.  Seeing the home of Santa Clause can be costly, though. There is a separate entry fee for both the City of Myra as well as the entrance to the church, but, if you are in the Christmas spirit and want to see a beautiful piece of history, it is a great trip to make.
