Kas 


kas harbourKas was once an unspoilt Mediterranean fishing village.

Now Kas is a unspoilt touristic, pretty town with fishing boats and yachts in the harbour, there are no beaches in Kas itself.

Despite dozens of new hotels and pensions, Kas (KAHSH) still has charm, part of which comes from its setting, at the foot of a wall of mountains facing the sparkling Mediterranean. Another part of its charm comes from Kas's unhurried ambience. kas harbour

 

The ruins of ancient Antiphellos are scattered all around Kas.

Out of the town, 500m along Hastane Caddesi from the harbour mosque is the small but almost complete Hellenistic amphitheatre with 26 rows of seats still intact (now used occasionally for wrestling matches!)

At the top of the hill, 100m away is a unique Doric tomb also very well preserved and in the town is the Lion tomb with 2 burial chambers.
