Gizli Vadi Kamping

Folk come to Kaş from all over for the excellent scuba diving around these parts – there are several setups in town that run courses and take experienced divers out to see the ancient relics scattered around the seabed and meet the turtles, rays and other marine beasties that hang around. If you’re not up for taking the plunge to such depths, sign up for snorkelling instead, or stay up on the surface for boat trips to nearby beaches, islands or the stunning Kaputas Blue Cave. At the other end of the spectrum, paragliding outfits in town can sort you with epic views from above if you’ve got a head for heights. A bit of culture on the menu too? Start at the Antiphellos amphitheatre just outside Kaş (10 minutes’ drive), then move on to the ruins of Xanthos and Patara (both 50 minutes). Kyaneai (half an hour), Aperlai (35 minutes) and the sunken ruins of Simena (50 minutes) are worth a stop too, if you’ve got more of an appetite for ancient sites.
