Çalış at a glance
Çalış is a holiday area just north of Fethiye town centre, built around a long beach and seafront promenade along the bay. Sunset behind Şövalye Island, opposite the beach, is Çalış's best-known view. The afternoon breeze makes the area suitable for windsurfing. Cafés and restaurants line the seafront, and water taxis along the canal connect Çalış with Fethiye harbour.
Accommodation in Çalış is mostly apart-hotels, residential complexes and long-stay rental flats. Please enter the name of the complex or building together with the block and flat number, so your driver can drop you at the right entrance. If you are bringing windsurf or kitesurf equipment, add this to your booking notes too.
