The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
Kalkan is a small peaceful resort on the beautiful Meditereanean turquoise coast of Turkey. It is more sophisticated than the normal Turkish holiday resorts and has not been touched by mass tourism. It is in the heart of the Lycian region and many ancient sites are relatively close by, including Xanthos, Letoon, Pinara, Tlos and Patara. Very strict building codes keep the town small and architecturally blended with the historic heart of the town known as "Old Kalkan". The people of Kalkan happily welcome you, warm Turkish hospitality and friendliness is the basis of life here and the people of Kalkan sincerely enjoy getting to know their guests.
Kalkan / Central Kalkan area
In the evening, the Old Town which is 5 minutes walk from the apartment is the main attraction. The selection of restaurants is almost endless, with many tucked away from view on roof terraces or down little side streets. The quality of the food is generally high, with many restaurants serving a wide range of Mediterranean cuisine, along with Turkish favourites, to cater for the more cosmopolitan clientele that Kalkan attracts. In the picturesque harbour, yachts sit side by side with gullets. Excellent boat trips depart daily at around 9.30-10.30 am these can be booked direct in the harbour at moderate prices, many of which include lunch and visits to quiet bays for swimming along this attractive coastline.
