- esopus35Hyattsville, MD726 contributionsIf you are in Kas, don’t miss it. It is a nice gentle up hill to the amphitheater and then some steps to the top. I recommended you go in the evening when the sun is setting. It is a great photo spot. Do not drive there because the road is narrow and you won’t find parking.Written 26 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Departure811861Germany857 contributionsAkcagerme Beach lies near KaÅŸ Marina. It is a very colourful place, which profits a lot from the surrounding scenery, the bay and its little islands. Luckily, it is not as overrun as, e.g. KaputaÅŸ Plaji, and its infrastructure is more than satisfactory.Written 29 August 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Departure811861Germany857 contributionsA thorough visit to Patara Antik Kent needs a lot of time. The ruins are spread over a vast area, and there is really a lot to see. The entrance fees (they comprise the access to the beach) have to be paid before the ancient city gate. Then you can drive your car to the parking lot, walk back and explore the ruins.
In the olden days Patara was the most important port of Likya. It lay in fertile Xanthos Valley. According to ongoing excavations it is probable that the town existed as far back as the 7th century BC, but even a Hittite king is reported to have sacrificed to the gods in that region. Patara opened its gates when Alexander the Great’s troops were approaching. Thus the elders prevented its destruction. Patara played an important political part as the head of the other Likyan towns. Common meetings were held in the Assembly Hall. Patara’s harbour was the harbour of the Likyan League. Under Roman occupation it turned into the Romans’ naval base. From Patara Anatolian corn was transported to Rome. Saint Paul sailed from here to Rome. Emperor Hadrianus had a big granary built, rests of which can still be visited. Apart from Patara’s political relevance it was also an influential religious centre, comparable to Delos in Greece, because legends said that God Apollon had been born here. In the Byzantine era Patara’s famous harbour silted up. Gradually but slowly the whole town was buried under sand and had to be given up.
I started my walk at the triumph arch and went over to the harbour baths. The group of huge palm trees standing next to them made me feel like in Egypt. A stadiasmos (kind of milestone) and churches have been dug up as well as more baths, the stoa, a temple and the Byzantine fortress. The amphitheater was once covered with sand, but it is completely free from it now. If you want to, you can climb up to the top, I did not because it seemed a bit too steep for me. Instead, I preferred to cross over to the ekklesiasterion, known as the biggest government building in Anatolia. It was recently renovated by the Turkish government and is certainly worth a visit.Written 31 August 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ebru AAnkara, Turkey1,047 contributionsIf you are in Kas, you are almost discovered that finding sandy beaches in the town is not an easy job. Thus, my favourite is Buyuk Cakil Beach. However, if you are at the cafe nearby the "Kucuk Cakil/Little Pebble Beach", you can be beneficiary to make a brief swimming at the small bay. According to me, it is just for refreshing. In terms of sun bathing as well as eating and drinking somethings, tht beach area can be eligible.Written 22 January 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Alice KKuala Lumpur, Malaysia6 contributionsVisited Tugra twice during our stay in Kas. It’s an absolute treasure trove of cups, saucers, bowls, plates, coasters, lamps, trinket boxes, and much more! Found that the quality of the pieces was far finer than that in other shops. We were bowled over by the incredible selection and the two brothers who run the shop were kind and helpful. A definite must-see! You won’t leave empty-handed.Written 2 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- LanniAmsterdam, The Netherlands4,522 contributionsRelatively "medium size" ancient city - if I compare to Termessos, and it isn't difficult to explore as there are signs here and there for walkers or trekkers (2 km short distance or 7 km long distance). Easy path, a bit stony, and with friends I visited in early pleasant spring time. What still visible are ruins of walls, cisterns, sample of Lycian house (not in ruins), and sarchopagus on the quiet beach. The panoramic sea view is unbeatable.Written 16 March 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
