There are also plenty of swimming beaches in Kalkan, as well as Turkish Baths if youd like a relaxing end-of-day massage. Mezes are the popular food here, and look out for places serving freshly-caught seafood, too. For fun day trips, you can jump on a boat to the small island of Kekova where you can explore the part-sunken ruins of Dolchiste, an ancient town which was destroyed by an earthquake. Or, a traditional wooden boat to traverse the coast. For top walking routes, the dramatic Taurus Mountains with its deeply cut valleys and canyons are your go-to. You could also join the popular Lycian Way Trail – a footpath that takes in fantastic coastal views – so, camera at the ready.
