Why Visit Kalkan in October?

1. Pleasant Weather: October in Kalkan boasts warm, sunny days with temperatures averaging 22-28°C (72-82°F). The humidity is lower than in the summer months, making it perfect for exploring and lounging by the sea or poolside. Nights are cooler, ideal for a cosy dinner out or a stroll along the picturesque harbour. Bring layers for the cool evening breeze.

2. Fewer Crowds: By October, the summer holidaymakers have largely headed home, leaving Kalkan’s charming Old Town quaint streets, beaches and rooftop restaurants much less crowded. This peaceful atmosphere enhances the town’s charm, allowing you to enjoy its beauty without the rush.

3. Vibrant Local Culture: The 29th of October is the Republic Day of Turkey, 'Cumhuriyet Bayrami', an annual public holiday in Turkey commemorating the proclamation of the Republic of Turkey. From morning until night, you can enjoy and immerse yourself in the authentic local atmosphere, from the local students' public flag-walking displays to firework celebrations in Kalkan's Town Square (in the Old Town). The nearby governing town of Kas often hosts a musical concert of Turkish talent in the evening.

4. Ideal for Outdoor Activities: The cooler weather makes outdoor activities more enjoyable. Whether you’re interested in hiking the scenic Lycian Way, exploring nearby the ancient Lycian Ruins of Patara and Xanthos, or taking a boat trip to discover hidden coves and beaches, October’s weather is perfect for outdoor adventures.
