2. Uncover the captivating secrets of Kekova’s history on this unique adventure around the Sunken City. The ancient city of Dolchiste was submerged due to an earthquake in the 2nd century, and its remarkable underwater ruins never fail to leave an impression. Since this is a protected area, swimming is not permitted, so what better way to explore the site than by cruising alongside the ruins on our boat, which features a glass bottom, providing an opportunity to capture unforgettable photographs?

   30 min

3. Our boat will drop anchor in Kaleköy port (ancient Simena) for one hour, allowing you time to explore this small, authentic village, which features castle ruins and a necropolis. A hike up the hillside will offer magnificent views of the Kekova region. If you’d prefer to admire Simena Castle from below, you can spend your remaining time taking another dip in the gorgeous blue waters.
