Kalkan

Kaputas Beach, Kalkan

Kalkan is an area of profound beauty. There is nothing quite like this piece of coastline, as the coastal road twists and turns to reveal the hidden treasure of Kalkan. The vast, open Mediterranean in the bay below is such an attractive azure blue, it has a truly mesmerizing effect.

Continue the journey on to Kalamar Bay (5mins), Kaputas Beach (10mins), and the next resort of Kas (25mins) and we are sure you will be astounded as nature unfolds. Over the last few years the area has attracted many British holidaymakers and now many own their own properties. Kalkan has developed from an idyllic fishing village with a marina and now extends halfway up the mountain.

The small pebble beach is on the opposit eside of the bay to the marina but many people prefer to take the boat service out to the terraces with their sunbeds, umbrellas and snack bars that have been created along the water's edge or venture around to Kalamar Bay where watersports are available.

The cobbled streets offer a delightful blend of eating, drinking and shopping becoming completely pedestrianised at night as the cafes and laughter spill onto the streets creating a wonderfully warm and enjoyable atmosphere.
