The only thing I have found expensive about a holiday to kalkan is the flight. But we could make this cheaper by flying at times that are less appealing to us. So we have to accept it. In all the years we have been going to kalkan we have only found the traders and restaurants prices fine. We have only ever had reason to complain about dodgy bills at one restaurant in the harbour and it happened for the third and final time we ate there. So we haven’t eaten there since then. I think they play the odds so although they are apologetic They clearly are not bothered. We have a hire car delivered to dalaman every time we visit and never pay a penny till we have been on holiday for a few days. I know we could eat in many restaurants without having any money with us being told to sort it out tomorrow. Same in some shops. Long may the place stay the same.

Surely, verified incidents of systematic dishonesty/fraud should shared with group? If not, then as a community, we are effectively condoning and supporting businesses that should be avoided like the plague.
Appreciate this is a sensitive subject and perhaps needs specific moderation/vetting but surely no one wants to see others being systematically ripped off.

Realise this is reply is a bit late but have been busy. Yes Kalkan is & has been for sometime now very expensive. Its noted for it even amongst the Turks. Not only is it expensive but there have been some rather greedy people doing some rather dishonest transactions. Have heard this year of incidents of over charging on purpose also customers paying for goods handing over their cash to be told by shop assistant the payment is 'short'. This is not just happening to Newbies to Kalkan but regular visitors which makes it even sadder. This is not how it used to be in Kalkan but greed sadly has taken over by quite a few businesses.

I'm so glad I booked my easyjet flights to Dalaman for 2020 on the release date. At £480 for 2 I thought this was a bit too much. But having looked at the price today I'm thinking I didn't do too badly.
I think a lot a people will be in the same mindset as Blue Lizard and be searching for new pastures. I can't see that there will be many people taking up these flights at today's prices. It's a shame because I don't think Kalkan will be as busy next year.
I do hope the air fares come down now that the Thomas Cook slots are up for auction.

Glad you're still on here BL, I thought you'd gone quiet of late. Glad to see you back and there's nothing wrong with a change of scenery. It will be good to hear your thoughts and experiences of pastures new compared to Kalkan. Sorry that your holiday wasn't as enjoyable this year though. We were out at the same time as you in June but I never saw a little Blue Lizard cross my path that I was aware of.
