Dancing

[Weheartkalkan]

Hi everyone, we visited Kalkan last year and had a wonderful time. The family are visiting again in July (ages 46, 45, 21 and 17). Are there any venues that will offer later music/dancing? Somewhere for the oldies and perhaps somewhere a little trendier for the youngsters?

Would love to see some traditional Turkish dancing too?

Moonlight''s always a good choice.
I''m 15 and i was dancing in there with my friend and my mum and godmother 

Samira hotel have a turkish night every saturday i think and there''s some Turkish dancing there.
Always a good laugh.

Moonlight for the oldies followed by Kleo bar - they suit me!!

for my 17 year old - last year it was Yacht Point Bar - this year - more Pasha Bar..!!

Still more to choose from - just our favs!! 

enjoy!!

Where is Pasha bar is it new? can you tell me a bit more about what sort of crowd it might suit?

[felicity]

Pasha bar is what used to be the Sultan Ice Bar...I think it was called..!!  if you head past Moonlight....past Merkez taking the last but one street on your right sort of opposite Gironde and Likya - you can see it just down there on the right hand side.  My daughter loves it there....but so do people on this forum such as Fidimax....so I guess it caters for a wide range of ages..I think.....haha Fidimax - just guessing that you are older than 17..!!   

I haven''t yet given it a go..been too busy in the other haunts..!!  But I will do so this summer!

Cheers!

Hi felicity,good directions to pasha bar,I was there in may and the bar does seem to attract every age(It helps being a good place to stop on the steep part)I love it there,but I know Yusuf and his brother Emre they are really nice and funny people,the bar staff also really good lads also,later on at night when they have to keep the music down and shut the doors a lot of the locals are there and the turkish dancing kicks in,its a really good,friendly bar in its first season and seems to be doing well. Neil        PS I am 49 on sunday !!!!!!!!

Hey - happy birthday for Sunday Neil..!!    I hope you have a fabbo day..!!  You would have been a good candidate for the 70''s night..!! 

my daughter knows Yusuf and Musty and Huseyn/Sid - well - so we''ll both be there in the Summer..!!!  Maybe see you there one day! 

[fidimax]

Thanks felicity,I think I might have shocked a few locals If I turned up in my seventies gear,that would have been my bowie/punk period !!!!!!!!! . I will be in kalkan on the 17 july with the missus and my 17 year old nephew,so if you are about Im sure we will bump into each other,just look for the 49 year old with the green mohican !  Neil

Hi Neil - we get back on 21st July - my daughter will be sure to be down at the Pasha bar - so maybe we''ll bump into you there..I hope so - would be good to meet you!!

Cheers!

We spent quite a few nights in the Pasha bar when we went in the first two weeks of June.

It''s a good bar with good music, caters for all ages, comfy seats, dancing if you want and good measures of spirits and as someone else wrote it''s good when they put the Turkish music on & all the locals teach you how to belly dance!!!

We have been friends with Husyen and Ozzy, who work there, for a few years and they have worked at most bars in Kalkan over the years and whichever one they are at they always make good.

Thanks everyone for the tips. I''ll give Pasha and Moonlight a bash. We obviously totally missed out on all the action when we had our first visit to Kalkan last year.

Can''t agree more about Pasha we watched the football there and there was a great atmosphere with fireworks going off everytime Turkey scored !! Good cocktail list too, try the turkish delight one mmmmm.

My favourite bar with a dance floor would have to be No-Name-definately the best music when the night gets started. I also thought Pasha was a good place to visit for a drink or two most nights.

 I didn''t get to Pasha Bar when I was there in June but I will give it a try when I''m back early Sept it sounds great, is it still being run by the same guys who had the ice bar?

[fidimax]

Hiya BoBoy,pasha bar is now run by Yusuf and his brother Emre works with him this season,they are great,all the staff are really good,and it seems to be working in their first season.
Oz who ran ice bar last year has gone to sweden to be with his family,give pasha a try next time you are in kalkan,Im sure you will like it.

[fidimax]

Hiya Mr Lizard,hope you had a good time and saved me some Efes,I am back on thursday so I will be trying a few in pasha bar,and yes,we will bump into each other some time,Ive already booked for next may,with my brother and two friends,I bet your blue skin has a bit of a bronze tint to it now with all the hot weather.

 Thanks Fidimax
 I thought with the new name that Yufuf may have gone I had heard that Pasha (ex of  the oldHavana) was opening a bar so thought it might be his.
