FİNİKE
Heart of orange-growing country Population: 47,000
Old name: Phoenicus (Roman)
Midway between Kaş and Kemer on the south coast, Finike is not much to write home about. A small town best known for its orange harvest, it boasts a pleasing but private marina, and a handful of old houses, most of them tucked away in the market streets out of sight of the main road that whips through on its way to Kale/Demre.
