What you can expect
If you are a complete beginner or novice don't worry, this is a physical activity similar to going for a long brisk walk.
The tour starts around 8:00 a.m. when everyone gets on the bus in Kaş for the drive to Uçağiz village, which takes about 45 minutes.
The Kekova Kayak tour begins with a safety briefing and paddle instruction and then the fun begins!
You will then enter the water and start your first paddling session from Üçağiz to get accustomed to the kayak and practice proper navigation.
We depart Ucagiz at 09:30 a.m. with a motorized support vessel to escort us, paddle southwest down the coast towards Kekova Island, and arrive at Tersane Bay at 10:15 a.m. followed by a swimming break.
From there the group will slowly paddle over the ancient Lycian Sunken City of Kekova. Since this is a protected area, swimming is not permitted here. So what better way to explore the Sunken City than by Kayaking alongside the ruins; giving you the chance to capture unforgettable photos?
After an exciting adventure, we’ll head to Simena and arrive at 11:30 a.m., park in Kaleköy (ancient Simena Castle) for 45 minutes, giving you time to visit this small authentic village which’s home to castle ruins and a necropolis. A hike up the hillside will give you magnificent views of the Kekova region. If you’d prefer to admire Simena Castle from down below, you can use your remaining time to take another dip in the gorgeous blue waters.
In the afternoon we head back towards Theimussa for an up-close view of more impressive Lycian sarcophagi and then return to our Kayak base. Following this you will move on to Üçağiz to enjoy lunch at 1:15 p.m.
