At Demre (Kale), the ancient Myra, (25km west of Finike), many splendidly carved rock tombs overlook the magnificent Roman theater. St. Nicholas was the bishop of this Mediterranean city during the fourth century, and died here in 342. Every year in December the Santa Claus Commemoration Ceremony attracts many tourists who spend their Christmas holidays on the sunny coast of ancient Lycia. Dalyanagzi, the ancient harbor of Andriace, west of Demre, has a good beach for swimming and sunbathing.
