It has been anything but quiet in Kaş this year. August was one of the busiest months for visitors ever; during one week all pensions, hotels and villas were full! It also rained two days in August, something quite unusual! Temperatures have been mild along with five days of rain in November.http://infolio-rg.ru
On a somber note, the Kaş Mayor’s office cancelled all official festivities for Republic Day in memory of a large combat loss of Turkish soldiers and the two earthquakes in Van.
