Located on the south west coast of Turkey, with the Mediterranean Sea lapping it`s shores, is the relaxed resort of Calis which is famous for spectacular sunsets and a laid back vibe. There is a selection of restaurants offering international dishes to suit all tastes, as well as traditional local dishes like lamb shish kebabs with salad and yoghurt, feta cheese and watermelon, Turkish pizzas and freshly caught fish in a spicy mojo sauce.
The Calis Beach is over 2 kilometres long, with fantastic views either way, and is perfect for sunbathing and cooling off in the crystal clear sea. At certain times of the year loggerhead turtles come to Calis Beach to lay their eggs.
The temperature in Calis can range from 15°-23° during the winter season and a wonderful 25°-35° in the summer, making it perfect for all those sun worshipping holiday makers. There are a number of good restaurants offering both international cuisine and local traditional dishes. Along the beachfront you will find bars where to watch the sunset with a cocktail or an ice cold beer.
If you are looking for those good cheap souvenirs to take home or some traditional shopping then jump on the dolmus service or take the famous water taxi to Fethiye, where there are many shops and boutiques, as well as the weekly market.
