Your guide keeps numbers low, fits buoyancy aids, and explains the basics so first-timers can relax while still seeing the classic sunken-city loop from Kaş. 📋 Key Details Duration: About 5 hours on the water Location: Kekova from Kaş Minimum age: 7 years Group size: Max 10 Meeting point: Bahçe Street, Kaş 🌊 What to Expect After a quick kit check at the office, you launch with your guide and paddle toward the sheltered waterways east of Üçağız. The briefing covers how to steer in light chop, how to stay with the group, and where swimming is allowed before anyone leaves the harbour. Pace stays social, with regular pauses so you can catch your breath, take photos, and hear stories about the Lycian harbours that slipped beneath the waves. Expect supervised swims at bays such as Shipyard, where stonework sits close enough to float above with a mask, plus a slow pass along protected sections of the sunken city viewed from the kayak. You also land around Simena village to stretch your legs, wander lanes below the castle rock, and enjoy harbour views before the return paddle. Step-by-step timing is in the itinerary below; routes may shift slightly if wind builds in the afternoon. 📍 Location Kekova sits along the Lycian coast between Kaş and Demre, where pine slopes drop to turquoise water and ancient quays lie just below the surface. Kayaks let you slip into coves that larger boats pass by, so the day feels intimate even on a popular route. The area is part of a protected marine landscape, which is why your guide follows strict rules about where you can stop and swim. Simena, known locally as Kaleköy, has no road in and still feels like a fishing village tied to the castle above the harbour. Arriving by kayak makes the landing part of the adventure, and the contrast between open paddling and narrow village lanes is one of the highlights guests remember back in Kaş. 🧭 Prerequisites No kayaking experience is needed. You should be comfortable swimming in open water with a buoyancy aid and able to paddle for a few hours with breaks on calm days. Children from seven can join with a responsible adult, and doubles are available when younger paddlers share with a parent. The guide may shorten a leg or choose a more sheltered line if the weather change… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Sea kayak, paddle, and buoyancy aid Professional kayak guide for the full tour Safety briefing and on-water supervision Swimming stops at selected bays (conditions permitting) ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point Hotel transfers unless selected as an add-on in checkout Lunch unless your chosen rate includes it Personal travel insurance Towels and swimwear ### Kit list Swimwear and a towel Sun hat, sunglasses, and reef-safe sunscreen Water bottle and light snacks Water shoes or sandals that can get wet Dry clothes for after the tour ## FAQs ### Do I need previous kayaking experience? No. The tour suits beginners as well as experienced paddlers. Your guide covers basic strokes, how to steer in light chop, and how to stay with the group before you leave the launch area. If you are unsure about fitness or confidence at sea, mention it at check-in. The team can suggest single or double kayaks and a pace that keeps you relaxed while still seeing the main highlights. ### What is the minimum age? Children from 7 years old can join when accompanied by a responsible adult. Younger paddlers may share a double kayak with an adult where equipment allows. All guests should be able to swim with a buoyancy aid and follow guide instructions. The leader may adjust seating or shorten paddling legs for younger guests on breezier days. ### Where do we meet? Most departures start from the Kaş office on Bahçe Street (No.6/D). Some dates may use the Üçağız village meeting point instead; your confirmation will show the exact location and any transfer details. Please arrive 15 minutes before the stated departure time so the team can fit buoyancy aids and brief the group without rushing the launch. ### Can we swim over the sunken ruins? Swimming is allowed in designated bays such as Shipyard Bay, where ruins lie close to the surface and the water is calm enough for a supervised stop. Your guide will point out what you are floating above and keep the group together. The protected sunken city zone itself is viewed from the kayak without stopping to swim in restricted areas. Local regulations are strict here, and the team follows them on every tour. ### What happens if the weather is rough? Sea kayaking depends on wind and swell. If conditions are unsafe, the team may shorten the route, move the meeting point, or reschedule your session to another suitable time. They will contact you as early as possible when a change is needed. Light breeze is normal; only stronger wind or chop that affects safety will alter the plan. ### Is lunch included? Some rate options include lunch or transfers while others do not. The options shown at checkout for your date list exactly what is bundled with your ticket. You can bring snacks and water regardless of the rate you choose. There are shaded stops where you can eat what you packed between paddling sections. ### How large is the group? Groups are kept small so the guide can coach each paddler and keep the fleet together on open water. Maximum group size is 10 guests on the water for this product. That smaller headcount means more time for questions, photo stops, and swimming breaks without feeling rushed or separated from the leader. ### What should I wear? Wear swimwear or quick-dry clothing with water shoes that stay on your feet in the water. Bring a hat, sunglasses with a strap, and reef-safe sunscreen because reflection off the sea is strong. Pack a towel and dry clothes for after the tour. A light wind layer is useful on breezy days even when the air temperature feels warm ashore. ### Can I visit Simena castle village? Yes. The route includes time around Simena (Kaleköy), where you can stretch your legs, wander lanes, and enjoy views toward the castle rock above the harbour. Exact time ashore depends on the day's sea conditions and group pace. Your guide will signal when to land and when to regroup for the return paddle. ### Is equipment provided? Kayaks, paddles, and buoyancy aids are supplied and checked before launch. Let the team know your height and experience so they can allocate single or double kayaks that suit your party. Personal items should be stored in dry bags you bring or left at the office where secure storage is available. The guide carries safety kit for the group while you are on the water. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/e0304f5d-e1ff-4eeb-9521-3ed8d20a4764-3.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
