Kekova Island, located off the coast of Kas in Turkey, is a place where history and natural beauty converge. The island, uninhabited and surrounded by rocky coves and pine-clad cliffs, offers a scenic backdrop for boat cruises. However, its main allure lies beneath the waves. Here, the remnants of an ancient Lycian city, submerged after a second-century earthquake, rest at the bottom of the Mediterranean. Today, visitors can explore these underwater ruins, gaining a unique glimpse into the past while enjoying the tranquil waters and dramatic coastal scenery.
