Meis / Kastellorizo Day Trip from Kas (Kaş), Turkey

[@christinahalavaka208]

Another amazing video, awesome food and scenery and did I excitedly yell 'kina's!!!'? Yes, yes I did. 😂

[@PeterandYen]

Hahahaha yes! Kinas so wanted to swim 🏊‍♂️ down and get them.

[@goldtop555]

Kas is a hidden gem. We are going back again this summer.

[@PeterandYen]

Such a charming little island 🏝️🥰 hope you have a great time!

[@sparklingaura3651]

Thanks for your wonderful island trip! Loved your lunch and the blue cave looked breathtaking. Imagine swimming in the cave! The water looked pristine and so lovely to see how quiet and relaxed it all was on the island. Gorgeous weather too which makes all the difference

[@PeterandYen]

The water around the island and the blue cave was super clear and inviting... so regret not going for a swim now thinking about it hahaha 😅

😁 even though it was so close to turkey it's interesting that the island had a very distinctly Greek feel to it. Was so cool to be able to go there for the day.

More turtles!!! And urchins!! And turtles!! (and a cat😁) Great job Peter from National Geographics on the turtle footage 😁😁😁… Very cool to see more turtles… (and the hat again😁😁)…very true…can watch them all day… Looked like an amazing perfect day trip with beautiful views… poor Yen and the seasickness… feel your pain 🤢🤢🤢… glad the ride was relatively short and not too bumpy… thanks guys!! Awesome video as always!

Yeaaaaa amazing little island, I just wanted to get in the water with the turtles 🐢 the whole time though 😍 then feast on the urchins hahahaha.... that would have been perfect

It's created in new Zealand and is in every grocery store/ convenience store here just like whitikas chocolate 🍫 😁 we've got bags of them in the pantry right now hahaha

[@TwoHungryDiners]

This is really indeed an epic day trip to Greek island from Turkey. I don't know which one is my favourite, the blue cave or the sea turtle encounter during lunch. Both are such magical experiences! Thanks for sharing with us 😍

[@PeterandYen]

Thanks guys! Yea so beautiful and felt like such a surreal experience both the blue cave and seeing so many turtles like that! So cool 🥰🐢💙

[@rob1971]

Such an awesome day out and so very different to Turkey when they're right next door! I'm pretty sure Mr Turtle followed you though 🐢

[@PeterandYen]

😁 these turtles were extra gigantic I think it's cause of all the squid the locals have been feeding them. It's so interesting right now different everything is from Turkey 🤔

[@MrVi-jp4zt]

amazing journey and documentation!

[@PeterandYen]

😊🤙 it was an awesome day

[@darylmckay]

What a stunning island, turtles and blue cave 💙 😍.. a fabulous adventure!

😁 never knew that such caves existed until this trip. Was a super cool hidden gem 💎 that we were able to visit.

[@darylmckay]

@@PeterandYen and to think that there are seals there too! I never think of there being seals in the Mediterranean 😲

[@PeterandYen]

Neither 😂 its always cool to see random native wildlife. One of our favorite encounters to this day is the blue macaw in Taiwan in a local city park. That was epic

[@stewartl5109]

Peter Bro 😎 why didn’t dive in and get the Kina’s 😉 😂 The blue cave looked amazing you guys… Another great video and your style is never boring Cheers

[@kalvino67]

Love your vids guys! This is the island where my mother was born. A lot of us Aussies have a connection to this island as a lot of Greeks migrated to Australia from this island back in the day (from World War II onwards). The island is known as ‘Kazzi’ to the Greek diaspora.

[@PeterandYen]

Wow, that's incredible going from this small Greek island to Australia. It would have been such a huge change for your mum. Thank you for sharing. Have you been to visit?

[@melmjetset1876]

Hi Peter & Yen! U got a 2fer 1! awesome vid on Greece! Hey Yen try using the Kongdy Seasick Patches. They're natural & work immediately. I get seasick on cruises and sometimes in kayaks. I get them on Amazon 20 for about $15 NZD. Now I always travel w/them. Easy to pack in your wallet just in case

[@PeterandYen]

Ooo thank you for the recommendation! I'll need to check them out 😃🙏🙏

Ah yeah just gotta love day trips, wherever they are! And how about that only 20 minutes to another country! Oh yeah true I guess you would need passports when you do that boat trip! Oh no Yen yeah you should have had some breakfast that morning before the boat! But yeah how awesome you have the sealife as company on the ride and likewise when you had lunch - at least Yen you finally had food haha! Speed boat, yeah well you gotta do that and heck that blue water as know of Greece and more wow at that cave! Wow cool view from up that monument and yeah well done on that! Yeah really great job and one heck of a day trip!

[@PeterandYen]

Haha yeah felt so odd for us to need passports to take a boat ride then 20 mins later we're in another country 😂 super cool. Loved the blue cave and those turtles too it was an awesome as day. Thanks for binging our videos btw! 😁🙌

[@mariaandbryan]

So cool you got to go to Greece! We are thinking to go to Rhodes in March...fingers crossed. There are so many Greek islands that are so close to Turkish land. Look at our turtles!! In love!!! Greek salad and octupus! What a fantastic treat! We love grilled octopus and I truly hope one day we can treat ou to a wonderful Spanish octopus 😉 What a fun boat ride, guys. What an experience, I hope my claustrophobia lets me enjoy that place one day.

[@PeterandYen]

Hahaha we will be going to Morocco this year but still no plans to visit Spain yet. We'll get there eventually I'm sure. Also we're planning to go to Crete (Greg's recommendation) this year too so more Greek travels to come 😁👍

Just discovered your lovely channel. You're helping me with my trip to Turkey so much! My friends and I are exploring Istanbul for a week but I knew I had to see more of the country, so now I'll be getting an additional flight into Kas and seeing the surrounding islands! :) P.S. was there a way to get a Greek stamp in your passport? I love collecting them!

[@PeterandYen]

Great choice visiting Kas it was one of our favorite places to chill. You get a Meis ferry stamp that's cool in its own right but I think will be pretty different to a Greece 🇬🇷 stamp. Enjoy your travels 😊

[@shreyunaughty]

Do we need a visa to visit Greece island?

[@slphealth]

Your advice. Staying in Kas for 3 nights. Is it worth going to Greece or should we just explore Kas and the surrounding area more?

[@PeterandYen]

Kas is a really nice place, but if you aren't spending any time in the other neighboring areas you might want to stay on the Turkish as there are a lot of interesting near by places to visit.

[@atakandurna5904]

If l buy house can l live live there?and is there ferryboat service everyday from kaş turkiye?

Love ur video❤ How long we need to spend in Kastelorizo if we just want to see Blue Cave? Plan to fly from Rhodes and arrived at 12pm and leave by ferry to Kas at 4pm. Would that be enough?

[@PeterandYen]

Hello think you should have enough time to see the blue cave within 4 hours the round trip is about an hour and a bit. The hardest part is finding someone to take you.

We are heading to Turkey in September, hope to be in Kas for a few days, what time of year were you on this trip (would LOVE to see the blue cave in Greece!)?

Hello I would like to know how many hours did the trip take because It seems like u went back to kas at noon
