Kekova Island
Then it's on to a little harbour where you hop on a boat and sail to Kekova Island where parts of a Lycian settlement were submerged in the sea. Peer down through the water as you glide over sunken walls and steps. You’ll also get the chance to cool off with a swim before you head for your lunch break. You can enjoy a special prepared local menu at a reserved area in the restaurant.

Myra Antik Kenti
Next highlight is St. Nicholas church at Demre. This bare Byzantine church houses the empty tomb of St. Nicholas, once the Bishop of Myra and the inspiration for Santa Clause. Take a look at the Lycian rock-cut tombs. See fallen friezes carved with theatrical masks and wander round the amphitheatre at the Lycian site of Myra making a memorable end of the day.
