Local Area
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, a selection of privately owned holiday villas and a multitude of
excellent roof-top restaurants offering all manner of culinary delights, together with a good selection
of stylish and atmospheric blues and jazz bars.
The village shops stay open 'til 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, 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, drive a jeep up into the mountains, cruise on a gulet or
simply relax by your pool.
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.
