Is Kalkan a good place to learn to dive? If so, where would you recommend? O0

Yeah, definitely - we did a try-dive with the Kalkan Dive Centre at the Kalamar Beach Club. Good dive and we felt really safe. It's not exactly the Red Sea, but it's a nice safe place. I saw octopus, an eel (yuck), cornetfish, and loads of others that I don't know the names of! They do this thing where you feed the fish under the water which is a bit of a novelty. Makes the water a bit mucky though!
The guys at the Dive Centre were really nice, professional and good at instruction (albeit we weren't there to learn, it was just a try).
They've got a website www.kalkandiving.com
Cheers, Claire. :)

There is some useful links on the main webpage also :)
If you wish to travel a little further Kas is a famous diving area and only 30 minutes from Kalkan

Why lose an hour going to and from Kas when there's a great dive school in the Kalkan harbour with a purpose-built dive boat (Dolphin Scuba Team). I learned to dive with them and have also since dived in Kas and have to say Kalkan has everything a diver could want, without the hour transfer!
