Itinerary

Day 1: Fly to Dalaman, transfer to Kalkan and board boat.
Day 2: We begin by cruising along the coast past Heybeli Island, Kaputas, a small sandy beach with beautiful Turquoise waters, the Blue Cave and Hidayet Bay before mooring for the night at Ufakdere.
Day 3: In the morning we sail around to Çoban Plaji where we stop for a late lunch and swim. In the afternoon we sail to Aperlai. Aperlai spreads down the hill from the upper acropolis to the sea. This is the only sunken city in the area where you are still allowed to swim and snorkel. In the evening there is an optional walk on part of the Lycian Way, Turkey's first waymarked long distance footpath. Tonight we camp on a beach, or if you prefer, you can sleep on the deck of the boat.
Day 4: This morning we start off with our optional trip, kayaking over to the sunken city of Kekova. As diving and swimming is prohibited around this ancient sight, kayaking is the best way to view them. Its good fun too! For those who do not want to kayak you can relax on the boat or further explore this pretty area.
Day 5: We continue on to the tiny village of Simena where we disembark and walk up to Kale, a hilltop castle, which is well worth the climb for its panoramic views. After lunch we continue walking down to the village of Ucagiz our stop for the night.
Day 6: Today we head back along the coastline towards Kas. We stop at Limanagzi for lunch, a beautiful bay with 3 beaches. It is then a short hop over to Kas where we are based for the final 2 nights.
Day 7: Our last day is free for optional activities such as diving, paragliding or just plain relaxing. Kas is a pretty coastal town ideal for strolling around and doing a bit of last minute shopping
Day 8: Transfer to Dalaman, fly to London.
