Trek Along Kaş

There is a long trail in Turkey called the Lycian Way. It's similar to the Appalachian Trail in the U.S. (not nearly as long though). We hiked about 3 hours of it along the coast of Kaş. Along the way, we past two ancient tombs that had been broken into. I would have taken a picture, but I was too busy holding onto the rope that kept me from falling off the 8 inch ledge that kept me from the 200 ft drop. Trust me though...it was pretty cool!!! Along the way we came across 3 beaches. We swam in each one. This pic and the next one are from the prettiest. One hike, two ancient tombs, amazing views over the Mediterranean, and a dip in 3 crystal clear beaches...not a bad day!
