Where to Base
Choose hotels overlooking the harbor or situated on the steep streets to enjoy views of the white-washed architecture. The old town center is ideal for walking, though be prepared for numerous steps due to the terrain.
City hotel guide
Kalkan
Kalkan is a charming fishing village on Turkey's Mediterranean coast, renowned for its cascading white-washed houses and vibrant bougainvillea. Administratively part of Kaş in Antalya Province, it serves as the only safe harbor between Kaş and Fethiye. Historically inhabited by a Greek community until 1923, the town has evolved into a premier tourist destination, particularly favored by British travelers seeking romance and proximity to European homes. With an average of 300 sunny days per year, Kalkan offers easy access to historical sites like Tlos and Kekova, as well as nearby Patara and Kaputaş beaches. While administratively linked to Antalya, it maintains strong economic and transport ties to Fethiye, making it a unique and accessible base for exploring the region's natural and cultural heritage.
