The story
Kaş is a quiet town on the Lycian coast of Antalya province, its whitewashed houses and bougainvillea climbing above a small harbour. Rock-cut Lycian tombs stand in its streets.
The clear water makes it one of the country's best diving spots, and boats sail to the sunken ruins of Kekova. Kaputaş, a turquoise cove below a cliff, is its most photographed beach.
