The perfect sea, the silence, and the natural beauty are captivating. The spring water mixes with the sea, sometimes cool, but generally wonderfully warm. I highly recommend it.

Kocakari Bay was beautiful, the water was warm and calm, you really don't want to go out. I don't know if there are deep shallow areas, the captain anchored us in the middle to keep it calm. Also, Kekova is generally rocky, boats don't come very close to the shore, you can swim to the shallows, maybe you can go to the shallows, the water is very clear, but there are at least five meters of sand on the bottom.

Kocakari Cove takes its name from Adile, the only resident there until her death. The hut where she lived still stands. There's no settlement there. Boat tours take you there. The water is beautiful and warm, and it's also deep.
