Hidayet Bay

Also known as: Hidayet Koyu · Hidayet · Hidayet Bay (Stonehenge) · Stonehenge · Stonehedge

Hidayet Bay is calm and well protected, which makes it the usual choice for try dives and training in Kaş. Seagrass meadows inside the bay are full of life by day and night, and east of the small cape bare rocks slope gradually to about 32 metres with moray eels and larger fish at depth. A replica of the Uluburun wreck, the oldest excavated shipwreck, was built in Kaş and sunk here, where it now shelters all the local grouper species; nearby an 'Archaeopark' recreates the original wreck site with imitation artefacts. The intricate rock formations in the bay east of the replica have earned the nickname 'Stonehenge'. TatilEksper and an Ekşi Sözlük user also place the Altuğ wreck in the Hidayet dive area.
