The beautiful resort of Kalkan lies on Turkey's fantastic Turquoise Coast. The town itself has grown up around the small harbour, a wonderful quiet village with good restaurants and quiet bars this is the ultimate destination for that peaceful holiday, good food, good company, sun and a warm Turkish welcome await. Kalkan is growing in popularity with visitors from Europe and around the World, but has not been spoilt by mass tourism; many holiday visitors return year after year and some have even invested in their own holiday home in the area. The small harbour area is charming with its small Turkish fishing boats and the occasional visiting yacht. There are some excellent restaurants with tables that overlook the harbour and crystal clear sea beyond, a wonderful place to relax in the evening with a good glass of wine and watch the sun go down. Behind the harbour is a maze of narrow streets with old white washed buildings, colourful shuttered windows and Ottoman wooden balconies dripping with bougainvillea, backed by the spectacular Taurus Mountains, the atmosphere is unique - One of the gems Turkey has to offer for your holiday in 2011.

The evenings in Kalkan are centred around the many excellent restaurants and bars; there are no noisy night clubs and discos here, so you are assured of peaceful but enjoyable evenings. Many of the restaurants have roof terraces with panoramic views across the bay, and with excellent local dishes on offer, including locally caught fresh fish there isn't really the need for anything else to keep you occupied.

About Kalkan Turkey The historic town of Kalkan is situated on Turkey's gorgeous Lycian Coast and was once a simple Turkish/Greek fishing village. Today's Kalkan is quietly sophisticated and postcard pretty with a few good quality low-rise hotels and a multitude of excellent roof-top restaurants offering all manner of culinary delights, together with a good selection of of stylish and atmospheric blues and jazz bars. Unlike some other Turkish coastal resorts, Kalkan's main economy derives from tourism and consequently, its inhabitants put much effort and pride into the town's historic preservation. As a result of very strict building regulations and the efforts of the Kalkan Foundation, the town has retained its charm and special ambience. The wonderful hospitality of the Kalkan people is another reason why the first-time visitor invariably returns time after time. The village shops stay open till around midnight and are well stocked with interesting antiques, crafts, jewellery, carpets and clothing. The narrow streets of the old town are lined with whitewashed shuttered buildings festooned with brightly coloured bougainvillea intermingled with shops and terrace-topped restaurants. These streets twist down to the harbour, which is the focus of the village and here you can enjoy a meal whilst watching the world go by or by looking at the array of elegant 'gulets'. During the day, you can make use of one of the many 'beach clubs', visit the local market (Thursday) engage in some of the local sporting activities (such as water-skiing, parascending, scuba diving, trekking etc), take a trip to one of the historical sites or areas of natural beauty, drive a jeep up into the mountains, cruise on a gulet or simply relax by your pool.
