    Aperlai (Greek Ἀπέρλαι) was an ancient coastal city in the small Asian landscape Lycia at today's Sıcak İskelesi in Turkey. Directly on the Lycian way are some sarcophagi and cisterns.

      Parts of the ruins are under water. Snorkel gear is reportedly available for hire from the nearby Purple House.

        The sarcophagus, cistern, outer walls, and stone figures can be viewed. 😀
