Üçağız is a small village in the Demre district of Antalya. Üçağız, which is located on the coast, was called Theimussa in ancient times. There is not much detailed information about Theimussa, which is located on the coast of a natural harbor. However, we do know that this city was a seafaring settlement that was part of the cities that formed the Ancient Lycian Union. Üçağız overlooks Kekova Island, one of the most special places in Kaş. The village was once connected to Kekova, one of the largest islands on our Mediterranean coast. This connection was cut off by an earthquake in the region, and a large part of the city was submerged. The magnificent view we will see when we look from Üçağız emerged after these earthquakes. Üçağız is located in the Kekova region, one of the rare places in our country. Simena Kaleköy is right next to Üçağız, Aperlai is when you follow the coast towards Kaş, Batıkkent is on Kekova Island, and Gökkaya Bay is towards Demre. In other words, when you come to Üçağız, you are side by side with all the beauties of Kekova. When you come to Üçağız, you will come across ancient cities submerged in water, pristine untouched bays, and green islands standing like emeralds in the middle of the sea. Many tourists from all over the world come to visit. Australians, New Zealanders, Japanese, Canadians come to see Üçağız and its surroundings every summer. The reason why Üçağız remains so calm and beautiful is that it is very far from the main roads. It is a rare settlement on the Mediterranean coast that has not been affected by mass tourism. With its sunken city nearby and turquoise colored bays, it is very different from the village image we have in our minds. Many village-type settlements close to the sea on the Mediterranean coast have grown and turned into towns, but Üçağız has remained far from this change. Resembling a fishing village, Üçağız's history dates back to the 5th century BC. Its population is 450 people. Some of the ruins from the Lycian period are underwater due to the rising water levels and subsidence in some places after earthquakes. You will see important tombs belonging to the Lycian civilization in the water right in front of the village. There is a unique atmosphere in Üçağız with ancient houses, walls and ruins of sunken cities. Üçağız has the characteristics of a natural harbor. The village is a good shelter for boats where they can be protected from wind and storms. The pier right in front of the village is filled with daily cruise boats and yachts in the season. Üçağız Bay is calm like a lake and is also used for water sports training. It is a paradise especially for canoe lovers, there are many canoe schools in the village. Üçağız, which is one of the favorite stops of Kekova tours departing from Kaş, is also located on the Lycian Way. Lycian Way hikers stop by Üçağız while proceeding on the Demre route. They meet their basic needs such as food and water in the village and set off again. Üçağız, which is a quiet, calm and peaceful settlement on the seaside, is much quieter in the winter months, and since the daily boats take a break from tours, only a few people who come by private boat revive the village for a few hours. When spring comes and the surroundings start to turn green, the village also becomes lively. Boat tours start and the harbor is full of boats all day long. Summer is the best season to spend your day enjoying the sun with a boat tour from Üçağız to Kekova, the most beautiful bays in the Kekova region. You need to be at Üçağız Harbor between 10:00 and 10:30 in the morning to set off for the boat tour. It is wonderful to cool off with a one-hour swimming break at Aquarium Bay next to Kekova Island, which is dazzling with its beauty. Tea and biscuits are also served at Aquarium Bay. Discover the fascinating secrets of Kekova's history on this unique adventure around the Sunken City. The ancient city of Dolchiste was submerged due to an earthquake in the 2nd century.
