Kas Holidays

If you’re after a mix of spectacular landscapes, sun-soaked beaches, and a sprinkle of history, Kaş (pronounced ‘Kash’) might just be your dream destination. Tucked away on Turkey’s stunning Turquoise Coast, this charming town is perfect for anyone looking to unwind by the sea, discover ancient ruins, and savour mouth-watering Turkish cuisine.

Start your day wandering through the charming town, where old-world Turkish charm meets stylish boutiques and artisan shops. Quaint cobbled streets are lined with colourful bougainvillaea, quirky bars, and irresistible cafes serving strong Turkish coffee. Ready for a swim? Head to one of the town's nearby beaches – Kaputaş Beach, with its golden sands and turquoise waters, is just a 20-minute cab ride away.

When it’s time to dive into the local culture, why not grab your snorkel and quite literally take the plunge? Kaş is famous for its crystal-clear water, and Limanagzi Bay is the perfect spot to explore. With vibrant marine life, mysterious underwater caves, and even the remains of ancient shipwrecks nearby, you’ll be swimming through history and beauty all at once. Prefer to keep your feet dry? Hop on a boat trip to the mystical sunken city of Kekova – just an hour away. As you sail over the turquoise water, you’ll be mesmerised by the ancient ruins peeking out from beneath the waves, submerged for centuries like a real-life Atlantis.

And, of course, there’s no skipping the food. Feast on delicious Turkish mezze, fresh seafood, and the area’s signature dish, ‘piyaz’ – a zingy white bean salad that’s perfect for a light, refreshing bite. Wash it all down with some local wine or the national drink, rakı. You might just find yourself toasting yet another spectacular sunset by the end of the day.

Kaş combines history, natural beauty, and that oh-so-sweet Mediterranean charm, making it the ultimate destination to relax, recharge, and indulge.
