Hi and welcome.  Not sure where barbaros is but I'm sure someone will know it.  So many good places to choose from for food - what are your preferences?

Koca Calis is far more rural, not much in the way of shops and there's a few hotels and bars/restaurants around the beach area. It's quite sparse and very quiet. If you want a Calis type prom holiday, you need to agree a flat fee with a friendly taxi driver into Calis and back.

If you were used to walking from there last year, the distance to the north end of the Calis prom iFrom Koca Calis s no challenge, but as Scunner has advised a taxi (one way at least) to the hustle bustle  of the centre of calis would probably suit. Great beaches at Koca Calis, quiet and better kept than the main prom, with free sun beds for the usual consideration of buying drinks food from the cafe bars that supply them.  The prices are not too bad at all.

Here are some of the Surf Cafe beach club in Koca Calis, which is our favourite. These pix were taken last year in September.

The shack was built for the film and was removed by the local mayor soon after filming. He owns a bar apparently down that end - and this wasn't it. A potential tourist attraction towed away and destroyed.
