Demre

Demre is a coastal town in Antalya province on Turkey's Mediterranean coast, known for the ancient city of Myra, the Church of St. Nicholas and its location near Kekova. Demre Harbour is an important boarding and disembarkation point for our Blue Cruises between Olympos and Fethiye. Guests joining the Olympos to Fethiye cruise are transferred from Olympos or Cirali to Demre Harbour, while those travelling from Fethiye to Olympos disembark here before taking an included transfer to Olympos. Demre is also the starting and finishing port for our 7-day Olympos-Fethiye-Olympos Blue Cruise, which includes a Friday overnight stay aboard the gulet at Fethiye Harbour before returning towards Demre. Its location near Kekova makes Demre a convenient gateway to the region's sheltered bays, islands and historical sites.
