Demre – Myra – Kekova
Feel the meaning of Turquoise in Kekova!

http://itsantalya.com/tours/demre-myra-kekova-tour-from-antalya/

The starting point of the tour heading up the coast with a unique Mediterranean view is Çayağzı or the Ücağız port in Demre county. Getting in the wooden boats at the port and going towards the area, there will be the opportunity to view the ancient, submerged city from the boats during the 1-1:30 hour long trip. Because there hasn’t been an excavation, we don’t know the history of this island completely, and it is filled with ruins. While looking at the Tersane village, on the right you have stores that have been submerged by the sea and on the left you can see the ruins of this submerged city in the water. As we follow the coastline, it is still possible to see that half of the houses are under water and the stairs go down into the sea. When the weather and the sea permit, there will be a swimming break. After the boat tour, our next stop will be the Ancient City Myra and the church of St. Nicholas Church.
The Ancient City Myria which is found in the Demre county, was famous for its Rock Graves and Roman Period Theater especially during the Lycian Period. The rock graves, engraved epitaphs and coins show that Myra dates back to at least the 5th century B.C. Myra was one of the cities that came to the forefront as much for religion as administration during the Byzantine period. Its fame is also indebted to St. Nicholas (Santa Claus) who was the bishop of this city during the 4th century and the church named posthumously after him after he was sainted. The church built in the 6th century AD is important as a worship center but especially for the sarcophagus of Saint Nicholas (Santa Claus) found here. In recent years, after the restoration of the murals, the most important examples of Iconic Art are shown here
