  Uçagiz - 60 mn from Finike, Antalya Province, Turkey
Friday, December 5, 2008

A second short walk around the Kekova archipelago.The path starts from the parking at Uçagiz, behind the public toilets, on the right (not very romantic but it's the best indication).
At the very beginning of the path, in front of the last houses, you can visit the ruins of the ancient city of Theimussa, especially the tombs by the sea.

Go on the path by the seaside. 45 mn later you discover the castle of Simena, on the top of the hill. Climb the hill following the water pipe. At the top you reach the lycian tombs, discovering a superb view of the archipelago.
Go down to the village.
You can go back to Uçagiz by the same path or call a boat to pick you up (Sami or Sedat in the Palmiye restaurant can telephone for you).
