The charming Turkish seaside town of Kas welcomes visitors. Known for its fishing, boating and diving opportunities, it is equally appealing to land-loving tourists, with many ideas and activities to choose from. Here are seven things that should definitely be on the list.
1. Make a quick visit to Greece
20 minutes by boat from Kas is the quiet Greek island of Meis, making it easy to hop over the water for some delicious Greek food and a look around in just a morning or afternoon.
2. Try paragliding
Anyone chasing an adrenalin rush will find it in this paragliding opportunity. Prices are both reasonable and negotiable, and someone will video your adventure – for a bartered fee, of course. Paragliding is available very close to Kas and offers a wonderful view of the old town.
3. Sunbathe on Kaputaş Beach
Jump on a minibus or hire a scooter for the 18km drive to this stunning beach in a mountain cove, where the waters of the mountain and sea meet.
4. Visit Aquarium Bay
Water babies will love this lagoon-style stretch of water with its huge variety of fish. Swim, sunbathe, or join a cruise with the option to snorkel.
5. Shopping in the downtown area
Souvenir shopping is easy at small local businesses, while the Friday market is where local go for bargains. These include great prices on clothes, shoes and sweet treats.
6. Watch the world go by
Every night you will find people gathered in the main square, enjoying a drink at one of the many cafes or bars. This is the perfect place to people watch or enjoy the scenery. There are also bars with sport or dancing on offer in the small streets of the square.
7. Cruise the coast
Kas is a boarding point for the ‘blue cruises’ that stop off at various points along the coast. The passengers are generally lively and sailing in a traditional Turkish boat called a gulet is a one-off experience.
Get the most out of your visit by staying in lovely accommodation. Kas villas are always nice and they easy to find through rental specialists such as http://kas4villarentals.com/.
Staying in a villa gives you the freedom to both relax and go sightseeing to your own schedule.
