Simena
Simena, which can be reached by the coastal road from Demre or Ucagiz Köyü as well as by sea, with its history and natural beauty is one of the most enchanting Lycians sites. Its tombs, its well preserved medieval fortress, and its underwater ruins shrouded in mystery by the blue of the sea, together with its present day fishing village, all merge to produce a colourful scene. Lycian's smallest theatre is located in the magnificient medieval fortress on the seating, held between 250 and 300 people. Most of the remaining ruins belong to ancient houses which, with a few changes, are still used today as village dwelings.


 

Because some of the harbour foundations, walls and ruined sarcophagi are today submerged in the sea, Simena and Kekova, the island opposite, are together often called Batik Kent "'Sunken City"
