Along the Lycian Way

A Day on the Water at Kekova
A day of quiet coves, ancient history and open sea
Set out by boat from Üçağız pier and trace Kekova's untouched coastline, where centuries of history meet the sea. Look closely on this route and you'll spot the ruins of the Sunken City, submerged by a 2nd-century earthquake.
Pause beneath the striking silhouette of Simena Castle, swim in turquoise coves, and take in the stillness of Kekova's hidden corners.
A boat trip that brings Lycia's ancient legacy together with the calm of the sea.

Walking the Lycian Way
In the footsteps of antiquity, alone with nature
The waymarked trail starts right at Likya Yolu Palas's door, threading along the coast and linking one ancient city to the next through pine-scented hills.
Walk a stretch of it by day — the blue of the sea, the scent of the pines and thousands of years of history keeping you company — then return to the hotel by sunset.
Ideal for a half-day's exploring, this walk is a distinctive experience for guests who want history and nature in the same afternoon.

Ancient Myra & St. Nicholas
Where Lycia's history and culture meet
At the heart of Demre, ancient Myra's rock-cut Lycian tombs and striking Roman theatre carry the traces of a civilization thousands of years old, just a short distance from the hotel.
Nearby, the Church of St. Nicholas marks the life of the saint behind the legend and remains one of Demre's most significant Early Christian landmarks.
Round out the visit at the Andriake Museum, where the story of this ancient harbour city — and Lycian civilization more broadly — comes further into focus.
From Myra to St. Nicholas to Andriake, this route is an unforgettable outing for anyone who wants history and discovery together.

Çayağzı, Taşdibi and the Nearby Coves
Discover Demre's clear coastal waters
Close to the hotel, Çayağzı and Taşdibi make for easy, ideal spots for a swim.
Çayağzı's wide, sandy shore and calm, clear water are made for slow afternoons in the sun.
Taşdibi's quieter, more natural setting offers a stretch of coast away from the crowds.
After a morning among Demre's ruins, these nearby beaches are the perfect place to cool off.
Sea, sun and the Mediterranean's captivating nature are waiting for you.

A Peaceful Afternoon in the Garden
The quietest hours of the day, in the garden
In the lush garden of Likya Yolu Palas, read by the pool or sip tea in the shade.
Surrounded by the Mediterranean's natural calm, it's a place built for resting, cooling off and stepping away from the day's rush.
Sunbathe by the pool, or settle into one of the garden's shaded corners for a peaceful afternoon.
Between birdsong, the scent of the garden and a sea breeze, time moves a little slower here.
A calm, green and unhurried Mediterranean afternoon awaits.
