The sunken city of Kekova was a port city in the 2nd century. It is known that it was submerged as a result of a severe earthquake. Today, this topic still remains a mystery. The area around the island is under protection and diving is prohibited. It is forbidden to enter the area except on boat tours.

We will try to get closer and explore this mysterious island of Kekova with a wonderful boat tour from Kaş. Crystal Clear sea water will fascinate you. You will enjoy the swimming breaks in Akvaryum bay and Tersane bay. Watch out for sea urchins.
