In Kalkan centre, a short walk from the villa, you’ll find vibrant roof top restaurants, quaint boutiques and cocktail bars. The town sits on the Turkish Mediterranean coast and has a backdrop of the stunning pine tree-lined Taurus Mountains. At Kalkan's weekly market you can pick up everything from fresh produce to handmade souvenirs. Later you could visit a traditional Turkish bath for a relaxing massage or have lunch at one of the many beach clubs. By night there’s the charming cobbled streets of Kalkan, where you can wander the whitewashed streets and visit the quirky shops and boutiques, dining at one of many rooftop restaurants underneath the twinkling stars. For outdoor adventuring , the Taurus Mountains can be explored via the popular Lycian Way – a trail that traverses the coast from Kayakoy to Antalya. Kalkan Bus Station is within walking distance of the villa – for venturing further afield to nearby places like Patara, Xanthos or Saklikent Gorge. You can book days out such as exploring the 'sunken city' of Kekova by boat, canoeing or horseriding on Patara's sandy beach. There are also plenty of swimming beaches in and near Kalkan including Kaputas Beach ideal places to swim and snorkel or Patara, which has 12km of sandy beach. You can also take part in water sports like scuba diving, jet skiing or take a boat trip on a Turkish Gulet, stopping in various bays and enjoying a hearty lunch cooked on board, experiencing the full beauty of the coast. If it gets too hot in Kalkan, escape up to the mountains and enjoy a trout lunch, fried village cheese and the freshest of rocket in one of Islamlar's many restaurants. Local Amenities Nearest Airport – Dalaman (122km) Nearest Airport - Antalya (230km) Nearest Village - Kalkan (Harbour & beach) (2km (2.2km)) Nearest Restaurant - House Café (200m) Nearest Beach - Kalamar Beach Club and Kalkan Dive School (500m) Nearest Supermarket - Kalamar Road (800m) Nearest Beach - Patara (sandy beach and ruin) (17.2km) Kalkan has become boutique resorts, with cobbled streets and converted Greek houses, which belonged to the Greek merchants before the exchange of population in the 1920’s. Once quiet fishing harbours these days you are more likely to see traditional wooden gulets taking tourists to soak up rays on the sparkling turquoise Mediterranean. A boat trip is a must do, from the boat you can snorkel and usually a delicious lunch is prepared on board. Keen walkers should check out the Lycian way for designated walking paths in the area. You cannot come to this area without spending some time exploring the many Lycian sights, such as Xanthos, Patara, Myra or the sunken city of Kekova. Patara is said to be where democracy started (they excavated stone voting block) and is also said to be the birthplace of St Nicholas, who became bishop at nearby Myra. The ruins here include an ancient theatre, city walls, government build and agora. The lighthouse on the site is said to be the earliest of its kind. Visit Patara in the late afternoon and finish the trip with a drink on the sandy beach watching the amazing sunset. The Salikent Gorge is a great place to visit, especially if you want to cool off in the fresh waters whilst walking up the gorge. For the more energetic there are rafts and rings to ride the flowing waters. Further down you can enjoy a day canoeing toward the beach. Islamlar sits 8 km above Kalkan. Once the place Kalkan folk went to cool off at one of the trout farms built to make use of the mountain’s springs. Today Islamlar houses many a villa, enjoyed by Istanbul Turks who prefer a holiday in slightly cooler and cleaner air. Here the locals grow grapes and pomegranates, but you’ll mainly see the men sat gossiping next to the local teahouse. The trout farms remain a place to come for a wonderful fresh meal, or a breakfast consisting of fresh local fare. The rocket will be the freshest & most tasty you’ve ever had; and the fresh chips cooked in olive oil take some beating. By night both Kalkan and Kas come alive. Kas has more of a bohemian feel, people ambling through the cobbled streets, passing the ancient tomb in the street, haggling for textiles, carpets and other goodies, maybe stopping for the traditional Turkish ‘maras’ ice cream, a tulip-shaped glass of tea or a wonderful kebab in the shadow of the mosque. Most of the villas in Kas are just out of town on the Cukurbag Peninsula. A reasonable (5km) taxi or Dolmus (local bus) ride into town. Be sure to try the Piyaz, a white bean salad with tahini sauce. Travelling along the coast, towards Kalkan you pass the modern marina, the children’s beach park (run by the local hotel school) and halfway to Kalkan the stunning Kaputas Beach, cut in a gorge with all different shades of turquoise in the sea. Kalkan is a more sophisticated resort, with the villas built onto the mountainside. Evening are spent enjoying the rooftop restaurants, perch
