Kaputas Beach & Patara Day Trip
About This Day Trips
Two of Turkey's most extraordinary beaches in one day. Kaputas Beach is a tiny strip of golden sand at the bottom of a dramatic narrow gorge — the turquoise water contrast against the orange cliffs is breathtaking. Then on to Patara — an 18km stretch of wild, undeveloped beach backed by ancient sand dunes and the ruins of the ancient Lycian city of Patara, birthplace of St Nicholas (Santa Claus) and an important loggerhead sea turtle nesting site.

Kaputas is genuinely jaw-dropping. The gorge and the turquoise water — just stunning. Patara was a beautiful bonus.

The ruins at Patara were fascinating — especially learning St Nicholas was born there! Wonderful day.
