Dalyan or Kalkan, Turkey?
Discussion
I'm planning a couple of weeks in Turkey, back end of September. Based on the recomendations given in earlier threads I think I'm favouring either Dalyan or Kalkan.
Anyone able to compare, and perhaps recommend one of the two?
I'm planning on hiring a car, and taking in all of interest in the area - I'm quite into history, local culture, natural beauty, walking, wildlife etc. Lively nightlife isn't a priority anymore.
On top of that I'd like a decent beach within reasonably handy, to allow a few days of relaxation.
Thanks.

Apparently Kalkan will fit your requirements nicely. If you have any specifics fire away...
From mother-in-law - "Dalyan is a pleasant village but quite a bit smaller than Kalkan. Have a look at http://www.ownersdirect.co.uk/turkey/TK1440.htm Its a villa in Kalkan owned by the family (wife's aunt and uncle) and is currently available from 21st September. This is first year they have rented the villa out and I believe it is quite reasonably priced, but we would recommed you hire a car to get to various places of interest/historical sites."

Check out the 5* all inclusive hotels/spa resorts in Turkey. Sheer indulgence, surprisingly non-chavvy, very reasonable and all your needs catered for. It would probably work out cheaper than that villa when you consider all meals and drinks are provided FOC.
Hire a car, and make sure you really plan the places you want to visit before hand!. Their road/places of interest signage is poor/misleading to non-existent. Print off hi-res Google maps of the places you want to visit, and a sat nav would be very useful.
You'll love it there.
