Our end is certainly worth a butchers. Go daytime and you will be able to sample the beach and the excellent sunbeds for nothing if you purchase a drink or two. It's also worth taking your mountain bikes down that end so that you can explore the little tracks that lead to all sorts of places. You might even find Ciftlik or Kargi if you are lucky ;-)
It's certainly more like Calis was ten years ago but nothing like Koca Calis was back then. I think it was the Birlik or nothing back in those days. Plus the odd corner shop - unless you went to the village itself.
