Kalkan nestles in a beautiful bay on Turkey's Stunning Turquoise
Coast. It has developed into a sophisticated resort and is picture
postcard pretty.
The narrow cobbled streets twist down to the harbour.
Having grown from a sleepy fishing village, it is now a town
with a stylish marina where you can enjoy a meal whilst watching
the world go by.
Kalkan is renowned above all for it's amazing selection of
restaurants offering great value for money in Turkish, Mediterranean
and International cuisine.
Roof top restaurants and bars with vistas
over the fabulous bay contribute to the special atmosphere of the
resort. A range of bars cater for a wide variety of musical tastes
including stylish classical music, jazz, blues and of course traditional
Turkish music.
Kalkan and all it's enchantments will quietly seduce
you into living on Turkish time, peaceful and unhurried. There's
no doubt that you will find enjoyment in all the region has to
offer. This is where the living is easy, the views are stunning,
the food is delicious and the people are friendly- what more could
you wish for?
This is a country full of life, colour, hospitality and
where the welcome is par excellence.
