Established on 1st April 2009, Kalkan Turkish Local News (KTLN) is an online service for people who visit or live in Kalkan.

KTLN aims to be a valued and respected community facility, providing news, and useful, practical information.  KTLN seeks to work closely with the local community to enhance still further the excellent reputation that Kalkan enjoys, as a friendly and welcoming place.  Also see The KTLN Brand.

Everyone is welcome to submit news articles or useful information for publication.  By learning from the experiences of people who know their way around Kalkan, we aim to create and maintain a website containing high quality, well signposted news and information.

The majority of content is in English, and is therefore aimed at those who come on holiday, as well as those who have bought property or settled here from abroad.  Importantly, in Kalkan there are many Turkish people who can read (and speak) English very well, and we hope that many of them will find this website interesting too.

Full details of what free membership provides are set out under Membership. 

If you want to read KTLN on your portable device (iPod, iPad, iPhone, Blackberry etc), we have created a view especially for you at www.iKalkan.com. You can read about it here: iKalkan
