The Turquoise Coast/Lycia region
Kalkan has a typical Mediterranean climate with hot dry summers and warm wet winters. The sea water rarely drops below 16°C (60.8°F), so swimming is possible from April right through to October. The hottest days of the summer are cooled down by the "Meltem", a breeze which blows every afternoon.
This area is ideal for exploring, why not take a day trip on a traditional gullet to explore the bays, beaches and sea caves along the coast; visit Kapitas beach, reached by two hundred-step descent down a cliff face; Patara, home to ancient ruins, is twenty-five minutes away by car and has a 18 kilometre long sandy beach and has recently been featured on BBC1 Holiday and the Evening Standard's list of 10 Fantastic Summer Beaches.
The Sunken city of Kekova is certainly worth a visit or venturing further afield you can hike through the Saklikent Gorge, explore the ruins of Lycian cities such as Myra, and Xanthos or visit small turkish villages in the mountains.

Guestbook
Fab!! thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, the staff were great, views and pools fantastic. The apartment was spotless and well located. Many thanks, we'll recommend you! Jamie and family August 2007.
We had a lovely holiday, everything was pretty much perfect. Thank you for giving us such a lovely apartment for our holiday! The whole resort was beautiful but we were so glad to be situated on the top of the hill as we had the non-salt water pool and made walking to and from town much easier. Laura and partner July 2008.
"The Villa was great - lovely and clean and in a great location (right next to the top pool and shop) The complex was absolutly wonderful and I would not hesitate to recomend it to anybody. Overall - Fabulous" Deborah and partner, York. July 2008.
