There’s nothing nicer than waterfront food and drinks. Luckily, Kalkan has heaps of eateries packed around its boat-filled bay. Peruse the menus of tasty Turkish mezes – grilled meats, zesty salads and fresh-baked flatbreads – and settle in for an afternoon of boat watching to the sound of clinking cutlery and chitter chatter. At night, hit the yacht club for sunset cocktails.
A boat trip around the bay is a great way to while away a couple of hours. If you’re a little more adventurous, water sports are big news around here. Back on dry land, the small, pebble beach is a kick-back-and-take-it-all-in kinda place. There are a few chill-out beach clubs with cabanas too – the wooden bathing platforms give them a real 'Riviera' feel.
If you’re a fan of old architecture, you can eye up the amazing Ottoman-Greek buildings in the old part of town. Better still, Kalkan’s well-placed for a day trip to the Lycian city of Xanthos. Get a glimpse into the goings on of this ancient empire as you wander around a crumbling amphitheatre and tombs dating back to 480 BC.

The ancient Lycian Tombs are one of Dalyan’s got-to-see sights. Intricately carved into the limestone cliffs, this masterpiece of monumental tombs is associated with some form of ancestor worship. Although they aren’t accessible by foot, they’re best viewed by boat for the most snap-worthy angles.
Dalaman Area
If more than four kilometres of golden sand, crystal clear water and stunning views wasn’t tempting enough, Iztuzu Beach has another special feature that brings the visitors in. Wooden stakes dotted around the beach mark the spots where loggerhead turtles are nesting, so keep your eyes peeled for this beautiful creature.

History lovers shouldn’t miss a visit to the ancient Phrygian city of Hierapolis, which is located near to Pumakkale. The city was built on the site of ancient hot springs, and the impressive ruins today boast a necropolis and sarcophagi. The archaeological museum here is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
