Kas is a place to experience the fascinating wonders of art, history, sea and forest all at once. Kas will certainly satisfy your desire to discover some unspoiled spots. It is a little town with a bunch of houses around the main street and the teahouses where the fishermen and the tourists exchange their stories.
The local fishermen are very friendly and will gladly take you with their fishing boats to the wonderful bays and coves along the coast. There are also daily excursions by boats to places which have touristic attractions such as Kekova, Simena, Uçagiz and Blue Cave , which is 35m long and 18m wide with a fascinating attraction. Kas has remained completely unspoiled since, until recent times, it was possible to reach there only by sea or on horseback. Although it cannot be defined as developed, it has all the comforts of a well-equipped holiday resort.
There is a marina where the yachts can easily obtain their needs. Kas is a remarkable spot for a ‘Blue Voyage'. The bays are for the divers who want to explore the underwater world, which is as rich as the region itself, if you would like to have some sun, sea and sand, and then you will choose one of the boat excursions to Patara or Kaputas. The theatre stands in very good condition and the Lycian tombs will give you clues about ancient Antiphellos on which Kas is situated.
Kas is a proper place for trekking since it is surrounded by high mountains. You may visit the remote villages and ancient remains while climbing up for splendid views. Mount Kizlar Sivrisi (3086 m) and Mount Akdag (3030 m ) are for professional climbing. For those who would like to spend some days on that high, breathing the fresh air, Gömbe, Uçarsa and Yesil Gol High Meadows are the most suitable places.
