Finike: A Glimpse of Greek Allure
Our first pitstop was Finike, a quaint town exuding the charm of Greek influences. Unlike bustling tourist destinations, Finike maintained a tranquil atmosphere, predominantly populated by retirees relishing the laid-back Mediterranean lifestyle.

Our base for the next 2 nights was the Sunset apartment in Kaş, offering a mesmerizing terrace view of the sea and Greek islands. With its private beach, the villa provided the perfect setting to witness unforgettable sunsets.
