The Church on Gemiler Island

Gemiler Island, beautifully situated in the mountain-girt bay of Ölüdeniz in southern Turkey, is packed with Byzantine remains, perhaps from the medieval town of Karmylessos. Among its many ruined churches is that of St. Nicholas, probably from the 6th century AD, on the highest point of the island. Its 360-degree views across land and sea will be one of the most impressive experiences on your cruise of the Lycian coast. Find out about our Lycian Shore gulet holiday
