Kekova Guide
You know, we always say that a thousand and one shades of green for a beautiful wooded area, here we are now introducing you to such a place that this place is almost a thousand and one shades of blue. Kekova region of Demre district of Antalya. When you say Kekova, which is a place between Kaş and Demre, the first thing that comes to mind is the unique blue tone of the sea.
Kekova region consists of beautiful bays, islets and small gulfs. The natural scents coming from the surrounding olive and thyme trees remind you that you are in the middle of nature. Another feature of Kekova is that it is known as the place where advertising shots such as films & posters for tourism purposes are mostly made. In fact, there are many remains of civilisations that leave traces of ancient times here. Especially Lycian traces. In fact, we can say that Kekova is a paradise for summer and cultural tourism with its ‘sunken city’, two historical villages dating back many years and dozens of civilisation ruins. Since the shores are not deep in some parts of the sea, this is a place where you can even take underwater shots of historical ruins.
If you find your way to Kekova one day and find the opportunity to relax and have a holiday here, be sure to make the most of the sea. Immerse yourself in the clear and blue waters. Do not neglect to take a boat trip in beautiful waters as if you were in an artificial pool. Not only that, but the fact that it is a place where plants and trees belonging to this climate are abundant in terms of being a Mediterranean climate zone is another reason that makes Kekova beautiful. Do not forget to go up to the castle on the island and take a panoramic photo. While doing all this, do not forget to remember Rauf (Orbay) Bey with the title of ‘Hamidiye Hero’ who tried to protect these places with all his strength during the Balkan Wars.
