PRACTICAL ACCESS & WALKING METHOD
About 18–19 km west of Kaş. Take a dolmuş or vehicle towards Kalkan and allow extra time for the steps.
HISTORY & ARCHITECTURAL CONTEXT
At Kaputaş, a small beach lies where a narrow gorge meets the sea. The Kaş–Kalkan road passes above it, with a long staircase down to the shore. High rock walls frame an open sea, so the sheltered-looking cove can still have strong waves.
Why visit
See the narrow cove between the coast road and the sea.
VISITOR TIP — WHAT NOT TO MISS
The return climb can be tiring; stay ashore if the sea is rough.
