Kas to Kekova Sunken City Sea Kayak Adventure

Discover the magic of Kas and Kekova with our premium full-day sea kayaking adventure. This unforgettable experience takes you through one of the Mediterranean's most spectacular coastal areas, where ancient Lycian history meets crystal-clear turquoise waters.

The highlight of your journey is paddling directly over the Sunken City—ancient Lycian ruins submerged beneath the water's surface. As you glide through the transparent waters in your kayak, you'll see the underwater tombs and buildings clearly visible below. This unique geological wonder provides an unforgettable perspective that few tourists experience. The partially submerged ruins create an otherworldly landscape that photography enthusiasts will treasure forever.

Explore the picturesque village of Simena, built into the hillside around an ancient castle. Paddle your kayak to the village shore and take a guided walk through this charming settlement. The castle offers panoramic views of the entire bay and the surrounding islands. You'll learn about the history of the Lycian civilization from your experienced guide, who shares fascinating stories about the region's 2,000+ year heritage.

Visit Tersane Island, known for its Byzantine shipyard ruins and pristine beaches. This island showcases the maritime history of the region with well-preserved archaeological remains. The calm waters surrounding the island are perfect for kayaking, and the isolated nature of the location provides a peaceful retreat from modern life.

Navigate through dramatic sea caves and underwater passages. The geology of the Kekova region creates numerous caves accessible only by kayak. These natural formations are truly spectacular, with sunlight dancing through openings above, creating an almost magical atmosphere. Your guide will safely lead you through the most impressive caves suitable for kayaking.
