Phoenicus (Lycia) should not be confused with Phoenix (Lycia).
Phoenicus or Phoinikous (Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: Φοινικοῦς), also known as Phoenice or Phoinike (Φοινίκη), was a port of ancient Lycia, a little to the east of Patara; it was scarcely distant from the latter place, and surrounded on all sides by high cliffs. In the war against Antiochus III the Great, a Roman fleet took its station there with a view of taking Patara.
Its site is located near the modern Kalkan.
