Kalkan has quietly become one of the most sought-after destination wedding locations for British couples. Tucked into the Lycian coast of south-west Turkey, this charming harbour town offers everything you could want: crystal-clear waters, dramatic mountain backdrops, incredible food, and a warm, welcoming community.
Why Kalkan?
Unlike the bustling tourist hubs of Bodrum or Antalya, Kalkan has retained its authentic village character. Cobbled streets wind down to a picturesque harbour, whitewashed houses spill down the hillside, and every restaurant seems to have a sea view. It's intimate, it's beautiful, and it's surprisingly easy to reach from the UK.
The Best Time to Visit
The wedding season in Kalkan runs from May to October, with June and September being the most popular months. July and August are the warmest (often exceeding 35°C), so many couples opt for the shoulder months when temperatures are more comfortable for outdoor celebrations.
