Kaputaş Plajı

About Kaputaş Plajı

Kaputaş Plajı (Kaputaş Beach) is a small beach at the mouth of a canyon on the coast road between Kaş and Kalkan. Because water flowing underground filters out through the sand at the shoreline, the sea here is generally cool and turquoise. The beach is reached from the main road by a flight of 187 steps. Kaputaş is one of the places used to promote Türkiye internationally. Four highway workers died in an accident while the road cuttings above the beach were being opened, an event remembered in a folk song, and two signs beside the road above the beach bear the names of the workers.
