Alex Smith tour guide and local resident of Kaş, Turkey, recently led a group of trekkers on a week long tour. This was their itinerary.

Day 1

Start Kaş.

Day 2

Boat trip to Limanağzı
In a small bay opposite Kaş and only accessible by boat are the three beaches of Limanağzı. There are water activities such as canoes, paddleboats, diving platforms and a small variety of restaurants serving traditional dishes, such as menemen (Turkish scrambled eggs), local fish and various Mezes..

Day 3

A visit to Patara Beach, often voted as one of the best in the entire Mediterranean. Patara beach, return transport to Kaş.

Day 4

Diving/Boat Day
Our boat departs twice a day; at 09.30 and 14.30. Qualified divers get 2-guided dives, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Beginners will get a Try Dive consisting of an introductory video and a one-to-one dive with an instructor, going no deeper than 8 metres below the surface.

Day 5

Morning: Weekly town market.
Every Friday morning in Kaş a colourful local market takes place with a wonderful variety of fruit and vegetables along with clothes and household goods.
Afternoon: Visit mountain village
Many villagers from the mountains also attend and it is into this area that we travel this afternoon. The scenery is dramatic, with extensive pine and cedar forests framing the Ak Dag Mountain range, which are snow-capped until July. We spend the night in a traditional village house with very basic facilities and communal sleeping rooms – however we can also sleep out under the stars (weather permitting). The warmth of the welcome and the insight into rural Turkish life should make this a lasting memory. The village stay with services of a guide, transport, dinner and breakfast is included in the holiday cost.
