Hello everyone, I will be visiting Kalkan for the first time in June, have been to Icmeler a couple of times and was in Belek in October.  Really looking forward to Kalkan, looks like my idea of heaven, good food and a laid back atmosphere!  :)

You have described Kalkan perfectly,and when you come,you wont be disappointed.The many restaurants you can visit are very diverse,in terms of cost,but all offering excellent choice and quality.

We are staying in a villa at the far end of Kisla, there will be 6 of us, was just wondering if anyone has any tips on Taxi's as I presume we may be needing to use them quite a lot!!  I am a little worried that we booed in haste before doing our homework on the area and a chunk of our lira will be spent on transport!!  ???

We got taxis from the Old Town (where all the restaurants are) to the Mahal hotel quite regularly last year and I seem to remember it cost 15-18 tl which is about £6-7.  The far end of Kisla does have a beach club though and I think they run a water taxi during the day at any rate. Not sure if they charge but would probably be a bit cheaper. My tip is soon after getting there and using a taxi you like use the same chap again when you need them, then they will give you an excellent service.

Yes we are hoping to find a friendly taxi driver who we could use regularly ..... Will have to put extra spends to one side for the fares, we are thinking of doing our own meal maybe one night and have also booked "chefs at home" for another so hopefully won't be too bad.

Thanks for your comments.

Hi and welcome!  We stayed at a villa in Kisla couple of years ago - it was bliss, and you will get some great sunsets!  There is a small bar/restaurant called Jimmys at the end of the road in Kisla , you can't miss it and you will be made very welcome.  From memory I think they do a nightly barbecue it's not as classy as the restaurants in Kalkan, but fine if you just want to stay somewhere local, and no transport costs! Have a fantastic holiday.  :)
