The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
The Lycian region is rich in history and the mountains and coastline are areas of outstanding beauty and fine beaches. Kalkan is situated on the on SW Mediterranean Turquoise coast between Fethiye and Kas in the heart of the Lycian Region. It nestles snugly between the foothills of the Taurus Mountains and the azure blue Mediterranean Sea below, affording stunning sea and mountain views.
There are some outstanding beaches nearby including Kaputas and Patara beaches which are amongst the most photographed in Turkey. Kaputas Beach nestles below a gorge and the beautiful sandy bay can be accessed down many steps or by boat. Patara Beach is just 15 minutes drive away and affords 17km of natural sandy beach. It has been voted one of the best un-spoilt beaches in the world and is a conservation area for the nesting grounds of the Caretta Turtle. Horse riders can combine a visit to Patara Beach with a ride along the waters edge and among the sand dunes and pines.
The nearby village of Bezirgan is located on a flat plain with the impressive backcloth of the mountains while a little further away the village of Islamar is renowned for its trout farms. Lunchtime is the ideal time to come and relax in the cool gardens and eat when the trout are at their best. The views over Kalkan are beautiful.
Kalkan area
Kalkan has developed from a tiny fishing village into a sophisticated gastronomic resort but has retained its charm and character. The maze of cobbled streets, with their bougainvillea covered whitewashed facades, wind down towards the small port where luxury yachts are berthed alongside small fishing boats all bobbing gently together on the waves. During the heat of the day Kalkan is quiet and relaxed and you can take your time perusing through the wide range of shops and boutiques selling local goods, clothes, rugs and jewellery. The people of Kalkan are extremely friendly, welcoming and hospitable.
At night Kalkan comes alive and transforms into a relaxed and sophisticated centre. There are so many excellent waterside and roof-top restaurants, some with tasteful live music, offering quality local, regional or International cuisine that you are completely spoilt for choice. Later in the evening you can just stroll through the town or along the harbour front as most of the shops and restaurants are open until around midnight.
Kalkan has an excellent and varied choice of activities within the town itself, or nearby, including all forms of water sports, horse riding, canoeing, para-gliding, trekking and jeep safaris.
You can take advantage of the villa facilities and simply relax by the pool, take an organised coach or boat trip to some of the many interesting sites in the surrounding area or enjoy the beautiful azure water of Kalkan Bay. Kalkan has a small beach as well as a number of attractive beach clubs scattered around the bay. These have amenities, private bathing platforms and steps directly into the sea. Some make small charges and they can be accessed by free boat taxi services or by foot from the harbour.
The Watersports centre in the harbour gives you access to waterskiing, jet skiing, speed boat trips, wind surfing and dinghy sailing. Small boats or Gulets can also be hired. For Scuba Diving there are several dive companies in Kalkan and nearby Kas offering day trips, PADI open water courses and TRY dives.
There are also many areas of geographical or historical interest within easy driving distance and this makes Kalkan the perfect base for a wonderful holiday. It has something for everyone and the holiday can be as relaxing or active as you wish to make it.
