Limanagzi: A Calm and Green Escape Just Across the Bay from Kaş

Limanagzi, Kaş

One of the best parts of Limanagzi is that the Lycian Way passes along this route. Along with the towel, water shoes, goggles, sunscreen, and the like that you’ll bring, be sure to also pack a pair of tennis shoes. You can take a walk through the pine trees. The view from the route is beautiful. Using the Lycian Way, you can even walk all the way to Kas and back.

Where to Eat and Stay in Limanagzi

There are four businesses offering food and accommodation in Limanagzi. As the area has been declared a natural reserve, further construction is prohibited, which helps preserve its peaceful, undeveloped atmosphere. Most restaurants provide sunbeds, umbrellas, and shaded seating on wooden platforms by the water.

Nuri’nin Yeri (Nuri’s Place)

Nuri’s Place is the oldest establishment in Limanagzi, dating back to the 1980s—long before the area was discovered by most visitors. It offers both day access and overnight accommodation, with a relaxed, back-to-nature vibe.

There are two beaches: one for day visitors, one for overnight guests. Rooms are simple and clean, with bungalows tucked among pomegranate trees. Each bungalow is named after a different district in Antalya.

The kitchen uses quality ingredients, serves generous portions, and offers quick, friendly service. Prices are reasonable, and the coffee (Turkish or otherwise) is excellent. Kayaks are available free of charge for guests who want to explore the bay. Beach access costs 80 TL.

Bilal’in Yeri (Bilal’s Place)

Opened in 1988 and run by the same family ever since, Bilal’s Place is one of the most popular spots in Limanagzi. It’s a little smaller than Nuri’s Place, located on the edge of the bay, and known for its laid-back atmosphere.

You can swim from the pebble beach or dive in from the wooden platform. The food is fresh and tasty—try the shakshuka, garlic yoghurt, köfte, or burgers. They don’t play music, making it ideal for those seeking quiet. Whichever beach you choose, it’s best to arrive before 10:30am, as places fill up quickly.

Delos Beach Hotel

Hidden among olive trees, Delos Beach Hotel offers bungalows and stone rooms, including more luxurious options for extra comfort. Hammocks strung in the garden are perfect for reading or relaxing.

Their restaurant overlooks the bay and serves mainly Mediterranean dishes and cold meze. Upon arrival, there’s a 50 TL minimum spend, after which sunbeds and umbrellas are free to use. Kayak rental is available for 20 TL per hour.

La Moda Beach

La Moda Beach is a charming, family-run spot known for its simplicity, cleanliness, and welcoming hosts. All rooms have sea views, and if you let your transfer boat captain know in advance, you can be dropped off directly here.

There’s no charge for sunbeds or umbrellas, but guests are asked to spend at least 60 TL. The restaurant has about 10 tables, a peaceful view, and a menu of well-prepared, satisfying food. Like the others, there’s no music—just the sound of the sea.

Things to Do

• Swim & Snorkel: Calm waters and great visibility make Limanagzi perfect for snorkelling.
• Kayak: Most places offer kayaks for guests to explore the bay.
• Lycian Way Hike: Limanagzi lies along the Lycian Way trail. Pack a pair of trainers along with your towel and swimwear—you can walk through fragrant pine forests with breathtaking views and even follow the trail back to Kaş.
• Sunset Watching: Stay the night and you’ll be treated to spectacular sunsets over the quiet bay.

Getting to Limanagzi

You can reach Limanagzi by boat from Kaş Harbour. Boats depart every 30 minutes and take about 15–20 minutes. A return ticket costs 25 TL for adults and 15 TL for children. Service runs daily from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM.

If you're visiting in spring or autumn and fancy a walk, you can hike there via the Lycian Way. Get off the minibus at Büyük Çakıl (Big Pebble Beach), then follow the waymarked trail—it takes about 45 minutes and offers lovely views along the way.
