With its desert-like appearance, Patara Beach, definitely one of the most extraordinary beaches in Kalkan Kaş. The 20 km long sandy beach is 300 meters wide in some parts, making it possible to walk only 500 meters, if you want to enjoy seclusion

Golden sand and stunning sunsets, One of the must-see in the region. Swim at Patara beach and watch beautiful sunsets from sand dunes.

Patara beach is approximately a 20 minute drive from Kalkan and makes for a great day out. Part of a national park, Patara beach is a key biodiversity area, rich in birdlife and is the breeding ground of the endangered loggerhead turtle (Caretta Caretta). Luckily the beach has been declared off-limits for development because of the turtles. They are nearing extinction and protection of their nesting sites on the Turkish coast is very important. The beach is closed after sunset from May to October to give the turtles peace in which to lay their eggs as it is the second most important turtle nesting beach in Turkey. s you drive up towards the beach car park you will find the ancient ruins of Patara on your right. As part of the ruins you will find the old parliament of Patara, which is where the Lycian League were believed to have once met, along with the remains of the grand ampitheatre. You can make a stop and wander right through ruins before carrying on to enjoy your time at the beach. Or alternatively you can park up at the beach and walk back down to see the ruins (approximately a 15 minute walk). Even in the height of summer the beach is never crowded. The absence of development and no water sports means that it is always peaceful. There is a café/restaurant at the end of the boardwalk that sells food and drink, and also hires out sunbeds and parasols. As you walk from the car park to the beach you will find just a couple of stalls where you can buy souvenirs and keepsakes.

The longest sand beach in Turkey. If you visit Saklıkent Canyon then you must-visit there.
