Kayaköy

The Ghost Town of Kayaköy

Kayaköy, anciently known in Greek as Livissi is located 5km from Hisarönü. That short journey transports you from the hustle and bustle of neon lights, nightclubs and British influenced establishments to a historical ghost town that still holds it’s ancient Turkish charm.

Once a bustling local community, Kayaköy was deserted during the Greek-Turkish population exchange in the early 19th Century. As you walk through the ruins of the many houses that made up the village, you really get a feel of what life was really like all those years ago.

With its authentic charm, idyllic setting and complete tranquility, Kayaköy is the perfect setting for a relaxing, traditional Turkish holiday yet within easy reach of other resorts such as Hisarönü, Ölüdeniz and Fethiye.
