Kalkan has excellent dive sites including islands, reefs and walls, with strong visibility often in excess of 25-30 metres. Water temperatures range from around 18°C in April to 30°C in August, and tidal streams are usually negligible.
Rated as one of the top ten walks in the world by The Sunday Times, the Lycian Way is a 500km footpath tracing ancient Lycia's coastline. Walks are graded medium to hard, with stony terrain, ascents and descents - best enjoyed in spring or autumn when temperatures are cooler.
Saklıkent Gorge is one of the deepest canyons in the world - around 300 metres deep and 18km long - carved over thousands of years by mountain water. Visitors can enter when levels are lowest in summer; around four kilometres is typically walkable after April once snowmelt has eased.
Kaş and the surrounding hills offer rewarding routes for experienced riders - coastal views, pine forests and rural tracks. Ask for a suggested route based on fitness and time, and we'll point you towards trusted local operators for bikes, guides and transfers.
