The Lycians

The following posts will be about the Lycians. It's a very old civilization that lived between Fethiye and Antalya. There are a lot of amazing archological sites to discover (Myra, Olympos, Patara, Kekova) that we will present you in a near future...
In order for you to enjoy the visit better, take the time to read the text below (very interesting, I promise).

  1. Dear Sabine and Bruno,

    I knew you would find one of the best kept secrets of the land. Kekova is one of my favorite places to visit. However, next time you go around, you have to go first to Kas, get on a daylong boat tour that takes you to Kekova. Along the way, you will stop and swim in small pristine bays where the water is clear and green and blue, you will pass through a sunken ancient city of which you will be able to see buildings under the water (also visit an island with only inhabitants as really skinny cats). you swim in those beautiful bays, and climb back to the boat, and they serve you immediately with tea - now, that's what i'm talking about :)
