The historic town of Kalkan is an enchanting
place and one of the most beautiful locations along Turkey's gorgeous Lycian Coast. With the complete absence of mass tourism, Kalkan remains
a charming and unspoiled haven of lush nature, brilliant blue crystal-clear sea, historic architecture, ancient history and warm traditional Turkish
hospitality.
Kalkan curls snuggly around an ancient harbour sheltered at the foot of the towering Taurus Mountains. The town overlooks a
beautiful bay in which islands seem to float upon the shimmering sea. Narrow streets twist down to the harbour through the historic town and
are lined with listed whitewashed villas with shuttered windows situated alongside small local specialty shops and restaurants. Overhead hang
original ornately-carved Ottoman timber balconies garlanded with brilliantly coloured bougainvillaea cascading to the streets below. It is
a very special place.
