Title: We're coming back!
Post by: Baggy on August 07, 2009, 05:49:29 PM: Hello everyone! After our fantastic week in June we've decided September isn't too early for a return visit after all! Last week in Sept and first in Oct. Can't wait. Just got to book flights, transfers and . . . apartment. Having decided we've got the lie of the land following a week in a hotel we think an apartment is the way to go and have chosen a shortlist from here and other websites BUT - anyone got any sure fire pointers to the perfect pad?? Also - we were nicely poached in June (Gad, the heat!) will we be able to move before 7pm this time!!!!!

We was in Kalkan in June and agree it was sweltering. We usually go back in September/October which is a lovely time , not so hot but the sea temperatures warmer, It is also a lot busier

I am jelious as we are unable to make it this September, but will be back next year all being well.

Hurray, going back in ten days, wanted to be over there for what would be the August Bank Holiday here and the week after, trouble is it'll probably be just as hot again judging by the recent temps on the forecast. Never mind there's always plenty of shade and an abundance of ice-cold Efes after negotiating those darn hills! Hope you have a great time! ;D

June this year was very quiet compared to last year and I think the flight prices had a lot to do with it. Just hope they do not continue to increase the fares. Looking at next years prices and quite expensive at the moment.

Post by: IssyG on August 12, 2009, 08:42:30 PM: We've only visited in August and I thought on looking at the temperatures on this website that they looked lower than last year - is this the case?? Maybe I'm just hopeful as last August was so hot. Although we're arriving on Friday we are thinking of visiting in May next year - how's the temperature then.

Post by: Reygirl on August 12, 2009, 10:31:46 PM: I've been a couple of times at the end of May and the temperature was hot enough for me both times. I was there first few days in May this year and there was some very heavy rain.
