After our breaks, we arrive in time for our Kekova boat tour, which begins at 10:00 AM, and settle into our boat. We then set sail for Kekova's captivating waters.

During the boat tour:

We observe the underwater ruins of the Sunken City, which has been displaced by earthquakes numerous times throughout history.

We take swimming breaks in crystal-clear bays and enjoy the unique waters of the Mediterranean.

Free time suggestions:

*For the evening, you can choose from the mezze and fish restaurants near the harbor. Fresh mezes, daily fish, and olive oil dishes are the cornerstones of Kaş cuisine.

*Handicrafts Bazaar: In the bazaar just behind the harbor, you can find original evil-eye beads, hand-woven ponchos, and natural stone jewelry. The small, authentic shops are a great place to find souvenirs.

*Enjoy the Sunset: To watch the famous "Kaş sunset," admire the view from the wooden pier at the end of the harbor or from the viewing point in Kaleiçi. The orange-pink hues of the evening sky are unforgettable.

A short and pleasant 15-20-minute cruise will take us to Meis Island.

MEİS ISLAND INSTITUTE:

Meis Island, a hidden paradise in the deep blue Aegean, offers an island experience steeped in history, just a 15-20-minute cruise from Kaş. With its colorful harbor, Ottoman castle ruins, and cozy cafes and taverns in small squares, it resembles an open-air museum. As you wander the island's narrow streets, you'll take photo breaks accompanied by the peaceful Mediterranean breeze and create unforgettable memories by tasting local delicacies and handmade goods. Get ready to discover all the beauty of Meis with our representative on our second day!

After arriving on the island, we complete customs procedures and set foot on the island. We take a tea and coffee break at a local patisserie to unwind from our travels. Afterward, we embark on a walking tour of the island, accompanied by our representative. During this walk, we learn about the Castle of Kastellorizo (Castle Ruins) and learn about its history from our representative on the city walls overlooking the sea. In the main settlement, reminiscent of an open-air museum with its vibrant pastel-colored houses, we stroll the unique streets and capture wonderful photos. We visit the Church of Panagia, one of the island's cultural heritage sites, and make our wishes. Guests who wish can also visit the Archaeological Museum, which boasts a small but rich collection (there is an entrance fee, which is charged extra). After these excursions, you can enjoy a free lunch of your own choosing or following our staff's recommendations. You can feast on famous Greek seafood. For the rest of the day, guests can explore the sea, sun, and swimming options on this charming island, or simply enjoy shopping, coffee, or ice cream breaks on the streets of Meis, fully enjoying the island's tranquil atmosphere.

NOTE: Our staff will provide information about visiting the Blue Cave, one of the island's most famous natural wonders, during the day. This arrangement is subject to an additional fee; detailed information will be provided by our staff during the tour.

After free time, we will meet again at the time specified by our staff. After passport control, we will board our ferry and return to the port on the Meis-Kaş ferry. Upon arrival in Kaş, we will transfer to our waiting vehicle and begin our journey back to Marmaris. After our breaks, we arrive in Marmaris at midnight, drop you off at your pick-up points, and bid you farewell, hoping to see you again on another Koral Turizm adventure.
