Demre: Coast, Mountains and Farmland
Demre sits on the Teke Peninsula between the Mediterranean and the Taurus Mountains. Its sheltered coastal plain and working farmland give it a different feel from the busier resort towns.
Use this landscape as a key to the district: the mountains feed the fertile coastal strip, while Kekova and the ancient ports lie along the shore. A visit can pair Myra and Saint Nicholas in town with a separate coastal outing, instead of treating every site as one compact stop.
What to look for
The Taurus Mountains rise behind Demre's narrow coastal plain.
Greenhouses, citrus and pomegranate growing remain part of the rural landscape.
Kekova and its islands lie off the coast rather than in Demre's town centre.
Useful to know
Plan town heritage and a Kekova boat outing as separate parts of the day.
Expect hot, dry summers and wetter winters when planning outdoor stops.
