Why you’ll love this…

You'll cruise around Kekova Island and glide past the Sunken City with submerged ruins visible beneath the water
There's a visit to St. Nicholas Church in Demre, built above the burial place of the figure who inspired Santa Claus
You'll explore Limyra Ancient City, known for its hundreds of rock-cut tombs and atmospheric lost city feel

What to expect

You can choose between the following options available in the order box:

Option 1: Tour with pick-up, including entrance fees
Option 2: Tour with pick-up, without entrance fees

Discover one of the most cinematic coastlines of the Turkish Mediterranean on this full-day Kekova and Limyra experience.

Your day begins with a boat cruise around Kekova Island and its surrounding bays, where the water shifts from deep sapphire to crystal turquoise. The highlight is gliding past the Sunken City, a protected archaeological shoreline where submerged foundations and stone steps are visible beneath the surface from the boat. Relax on deck, take photos, enjoy swimming and a freshly served lunch on board while the coastline of ancient Lycia drifts by.

After the cruise, continue inland to St. Nicholas Church in Demre—built above the burial place of Saint Nicholas, the historical figure who inspired the Santa Claus legend. Today, it’s a museum-like site known for its atmospheric Byzantine setting and surviving fresco/mosaic details.

To finish the day, you’ll visit Limyra Ancient City, a lesser-visited gem of Lycia. Limyra is especially known for its hundreds of rock-cut tombs and its powerful “lost city” atmosphere.

Activities

Antalya quad bike or buggy safari

Antalya is pinched between the Mediterranean coastline and the Taurus Mountains, and gives you the perfect setting for some off-road fun. Choose a buggy or quad bike and hit the trails on a guided tour of the countryside. After your safety briefing and a quick test drive, you'll have over an hour and a half in the driving seat either solo or sharing the views with your passenger. You'll leave the resorts behind and see the wild side of Türkiye as you rumble through rocky mountain foothills, drive through dry riverbeds and take a well-deserved breather in a pine-scented forest.
