Discover the Turquoise Coast in southern Turkey on this trip perfectly designed for both teens and adult to enjoy on a special family holiday. The historic region of Lycia enjoys mountains that rise steeply from the wooded shore and tiny bays, giving beautiful views and a great mixture of stunning swims. This is a trip to enjoy vibrant colours, clear waters and quiet coastlines.
Based in the small coastal village of Kaş, we spend the week exploring countless caves, tunnels, arches and bays as we swim amongst the area’s isolated beaches, scattered archipelagos and historical sites.
Our main boat for the week is a traditional Turkish gulet, which is an ideal way to experience this part of the world. The gullet is also where we will enjoy the fresh, traditional Turkish lunches which are served on board between your swims, and there is plenty of room to stretch out and relax while you are out of the water.
Who is this trip for?
Designed for families who want to swim together, this trip offers the chance for adults to bring children as young as 12 to enjoy the full experience of a swimming holiday. A classic SwimTrek break, our Lycian Way trip features a mixture of calmer coastal swims and short crossings, ideal for a variety of swimming abilities. Our Teens trips conveniently operate during school holidays and provide the opportunity for teenagers to swim with others of their own age as well as with their family. Swimmers should have a basic understanding of open water swimming and be capable of completing the average daily short swim distances of 2½ - 3km.
Please note that adults that are not travelling with their own teenage children or are part of a party with at least one teenage child are not permitted on this trip. Equally, teenagers must be accompanied on the trip by at least one adult.
