The modern, laid-back resort town of Calis is just a few miles north along the coast from Fethiye. It is particularly renowned for some of the most romantic and spectacular sunsets in the world and at certain times of the year turtles come here to lay their eggs in the soft sand.
With its long stretch of sandy beach, it’s wide, mostly pedestrianised promenade and small family-run hotels it is favoured by families and the less mobile holidaymaker. The popularity of Calis as a holiday destination is reflected in the new developments of high quality villas and apartments and it is becoming increasingly popular with UK tour operators.
