Kaputas is a mountain gorge with a small shingle cove beach under a bridge
crossing the gorge, with a steep set of steps up/down to the beach,and a
steep drop off into the clear blue sea. It's a 10 minute dolmus [bus] ride
from the hill village of Kalkan, a harbour town with colourful restaurants
and terraced bars overlooking the not particularly attractive marina.2 hrs
from Dalaman Airport.
Hundreds
of years ago a huge chasm opened up the side of the mountain face and
spilled its contents out to sea. The gorge has dried up, but what's left
is Kaputas Beach, a small, sandy patch 400 steps down from the highway
that feels like the middle of nowhere. From here, it's just a short swim
to some nearby phosphorescent caves. |
