Few places on the Mediterranean concentrate so much into such a compact area. Kaş sits where steep Lycian mountains drop straight into clear, deep water, so within minutes you can be diving a reef, hiking a coastal trail or stepping onto a boat. Spring and autumn are perfect for walking and gorges, high summer for the sea, and the diving season runs long thanks to mild water. Whatever the month, the bays around Kaş stay calm and inviting.
How to plan your days in Kaş
A good rhythm is to mix water days with one cooler inland day. Many visitors open with the Kekova boat trip to get their bearings, keep a relaxed beach or bays day for the middle, and save a Saklıkent gorge or Lycian Way morning for when they want a change of scene. Schedule paragliding and diving for the calmest morning air, and leave a sunset cruise for your last evening. If you only have a couple of days, the boat trips alone are worth the journey.
