Antiphellos Theatre & King's Tomb

Antiphellos Antik Tiyatrosu

A Hellenistic seaside theatre at the edge of Kaş, with the Greek island of Meis visible at sunset, and a Lycian sarcophagus in town.

Antiphellos was the ancient name of Kaş. The theatre, built in the 1st century BC, seats about 4,000 and faces the sea and the Greek island of Kastellorizo (Meis). At sunset, locals often sit on the stone steps to watch the sun go down. At the end of Uzuncarsi Street in the town center stands the 'King's Tomb', a 4th-century BC Lycian sarcophagus with a lion-head carving on its lid. Both sites are free and within walking distance. From Kaş, a ferry takes about 20 minutes to Meis for a day trip (a Schengen visa is required).
