Thematic Routes

Finike history trail

A two-day archaeology spine — Limyra then Arykanda — without forcing both into one hot afternoon.

Day 1: Limyra near Turunçova (about 90 minutes on site), then citrus stands and the marina for a lighter evening.

Day 2: Drive north to Arykanda (40–50 minutes). Stairs and hillside paths need an early start in summer.

A car is essential. Do not compress both sites into one day unless you already know the roads and heat tolerance — the theatre at Arykanda rewards a slower visit.
