Kas, once named Antiphellos, is one of the pretty harbors of the province of Antalya. On the slope facing the sea there is a well-
protected theater, behind that a necropolis, and on the hill there are rock tombs shaped like temples carved into the rocks.
The Lycian style sarcophagus grave now in the middle of the main street at the centrum is a symbol of this antique Lycian city. Kas harbor provides a breath taking stop for the yachts and boats alike. There are daily boat trips to the antique Kekova-Kale-Uc Agiz region starting out from Kas harbor. There are also cruises to the Greek island Meis across the harbor.
There are excellent restaurants, terrace bars and tea gardens, pretty cobbled streets and all eyways abundant with exclusive shops, craft centres and beaches in the town or a short drive away. You can enjoy a traditional Turkish massage, hamman or even experience a visit to the barbers where a haircut, shave and neck massage are all part of the deal.
There is a famous market on a Friday where you can practise your haggling down to a fine art and enjoy all the fresh produce direct from the local mountain villages. The town itself has many historical remains to explore and the Kas Amphitheatre is a perfect place to watch the sun go down when the collection of cliff tombs come alive to light up at night!
There are also many cultural and fascinating trips to enjoy including the sunken city of Kekova and for the active, scuba diving, sea kayaking and even paragliding. For those who need to keep in touch with work or home there are a number of well appointed Internet Cafes situated in the town centre providing life Internet access and communication.
Kas is simply a wonderful area of unspoilt Turkey.
