A very kind person emailed me a list of establishments on the Prom (both left and right) of the Viewing Point and also of the Main Street and the Side Street down to Scarlett.
Supacabby is going to complete his excellent work so that we can cross reference things but in the meantime I'll post the lists as they stand.
PLEASE if you spot an error and/or have suggestionss as how to improve the lists please let us know.
First list in next post and I'd be grateful if you wait until all four lists have been posted before you comment.

-
Are either of these maps of additional benefit to the Calis Prom Right List and would it be worth while to do maps for the other lists. If so, I'll tart them up after I've corrected them ;)

Well done you.
Bruce
-
Are the maps of "additional" help Bruce.[?]
-
A lot of hard work...well done what a brilliant ides..thanx 8)
-
These are great hope no copyright involved !!! as Im going to print them off and put them in my guest book in apartment will be so handy for any new visitors to Calis
thanks Diana
-
H can you repost the link for the maps on here for new readers.
And quick get a copyright on it.....................
-
Oh dear Jim - I have absolutely no idea how ro repost the link for the maps:(
-
That's brill so helpful...I will be sure to give this to friends and relatives ......
-
June
Are the maps useful or are the lists sufficient.
I'll refine the maps but only if people think it's worthwhile.

Jim - I remember how to get the link :-\. I'll edit the map and post the link
-
Yes John great help to me.
Bruce
-
Jim - unsurprisingly I am struggling with this link business.
How can a save and post on here the map I have created :-\:(
-
Amazing - what a huge help to everyone. As I work with tourists I am often asked where places that have been recommended to them are and I often do not know the answer (I am still finding my way around all the restaurants in Calis!). I can now print this off and use it. What a fab idea of yours and what a HUGE help. Thank you SOOOOOO much.
-
Sorry H can't help as only know how its done on google maps.
-
Sorry H just had another look at Google earth - if you click on the "VIEW ON GOOGLE MAPS" icon at the top (next tothe Email and print icons) this then gives an option of supplying a link with the "CHAIN" icon - see if that works for you.
-
Think I'll have to give up on the Googles Maps. From what I can gather the only way to do it is to join the Google Community.
If anybody knows otherwise, please let me know.
I think it maybe possible to email the map so if anyone wants to try that, again please let me know.
-
Google maps is easy - just time consuming - IMO google earth is OK for personal use.
-
I agree Jim - adding icons in Google Earth is easy and I have done that.
It's being able to let others see the icons I have added that's the problem.
-
I'v been fiddling about with maps, largely unsuccessfully due to scaling problems, but I'm going to post them anyway.
That will mark the end of the exercise - for now anyway.

Brilliant help - thankyou John.
-
WendyA - if you look at the first heading in Calis Bar & Restuarant Q's and Discussion Section you will find the final booklet version of the information which is much more user friendly (I hope).
-
I am not sure what all these different maps are trying to show "new" people to Calis.I can understand resident of Calis would understand them but as they know where all these places are they dont need them.
I think new holiday makers would be very confused as nothing is explained.Sorry to sound critical but having 4 or 5 different views of different angles from the "viewing point" to different places in Calis would just confuse new comers to Calis.

I'd be extremely grateful if you would give me your opinion of the final booklet version before I respond to the above.
-
I had already seen the link Highlander and do appreciate the long hours and hard work that you have put into it. Very well done.
But my questions are still the same as to my previous post.
If you were going to Calis for the first time you would be confused by your map.I cannot see anywhere where it explains to a new comer, where exactly is the "viewing point". Yes I know you know but new visitors would not.So straight away you have lost them ! You have to establish exactly where you are as to the start of any tourist map or you are lost before you have starterd.New comers need a starting reference. No reference to bridge or water taxi which most people can associate with as far as I can see on your map/s.Ok I realise it is just about restaurants and pubs so other information is not considered needed.But as I have already said you have done a lot of hard work to get to the stage you are at with these maps so well done.
-
Thanks for replying doubletwo and for your kind words.
"New comers need a starting reference. No reference to bridge or water taxi which most people can associate with as far as I can see on your map/s
I agree that new comers to Calis would not know the viewing point, but please explain how they would know the bridge or water taxi
I deliberatley chose The Viewing Point is the "point of reference" for the three maps for the simple reason that the bars/restaurants along the front and up the main street "radiate" from that point.
I had assumed that new visitors would ask where the restaurants and bars were and would be directed to the prom. They would very soon come to the Viewing Point and would know where various establishments were located fronm that point.
I not sure I have seen a tourist map of London which explains to a new comer exactly where Piccadilly Circus is.
If the only criticism of the booklet is that there is no point of reference I think we might consider it useful.
-
And in fairness far more useful than anything you have produced to help visitors to Calis Beach doubletwo.
-
H - its a dificult thing to give anybody a starting point to find their way around any place, the use of things like bridges can be very confusing - unless there was only one within a couple of miles and items such as the boat taxi works OK in the summer - but its an empty waterway out of season, many people still refer to the Dolphin roundabout when giving directions - now try explaining that to a newcomer, so the Viewpoint is a very sensible reference point, its there all year round, its name is pretty well displayed and it is located where many of the visitors especially those not actually staying in Calis have their first sight of the sea. So well done on the guide, it will be very helpfull to loads of people.
-
Many thanks Jim much appreciated especially as you are aware of the google earth scaling problems. Thanks also to WendyA, buddy and AOK.
-
Highlander I did write a reply but mysteriously it was not has vanished.
As I have said I appreciate all the time and work you have put into these maps and I am sure lots will find them helpful.Its a shame that we are censored on this forum as to what we can say or not say. Very childish.Keep up the good work.
I am hiring a car when I come out in Sept. Any chance of a road map Highlander. A 30 mile radius of Calis will do. :) Thank you. :)

Please provide evidence of that or retract it.

I see you have conveniently gone offline now doubletwo. You are entitled to your view on John's comprehensive and FREE guide to Calis, even though I'd have probably said nothing - that's up to you. You are not censored for your opinion of it.
Your next post here will either be as requested - 1. Evidence to back up your claim "that we are censored on this forum as to what we can say or not say", or 2. A retraction of your accusation and an apology. Any other "next post" will be your last. Big claims, no facts - I think we've had your sort before.

I would like to apologise as to saying this forum is censored by Scunner.Its true I do not have any evidence that what I said is true.
He has as he said had many many many many of my sort before all making the same claims. And obviously all wrong.There is not a lot more to say is there.
-
Many, many people making claims and accusations based on nothing, other than a desire to come here and criticise the work of those of us who give our time to trying to help people, often complete strangers that we will never meet. You can't back up your claim and even so try to imply you are one of many who make the same claim. You are indeed one of quite a few people who come here to be negative wherever the opportunity allows, and to put down, and to mock the efforts of others who have things to offer that you don't - and because of that, you add nothing to the community at all. So best you don't suffer this censored place full of information that is useless to everyone. We were not good enough for you and that will keep me awake for minutes. Bye.

Isn't it amazing though, when people's opinions aren't agreed with, they claim they are being censored - even though every word they have ever written is still in full public view?
-
Well done Highlander what a great post and photo very very useful and I will be using them in May when I am over. Thanks for doing a great job. crookes875
-
crookes875 - thanks for your kind words
Have you seen the user friendly version under Calis Bar & Restaurant Q's and Discussion (first heading)
-
Highlander, I hope you're working hard on that "30 mile radius map", shouldn't take many weeks to do ;)
-
"After Bella Mama's we went to Teo's new terrace bar for a few cocktails all at 10 tl till 11pm the best Cocktails we have had so far beautiful very nice place as well"
Someone posted this on the restaurant review and it mentions "Teo's terrace bar" Seems that its missing from the list, unless its not in Calis! Can anyone shed some light on it? Does it need adding?
-
Highlander
Seems Bostan's will have to be struck off too,
The list is great so hoping you will keep updating it.
Fantastic site with invaluable contributions from all.
-
Lovely post Highlander, we will be printing it off to take with us in august,have read so many reviews about the restaurants in calis and now we will know where to find them all....many thanks
-
Cennet - if you mean the scoundrel in the pictures and unless he has changed the name for the coming season, it's called Bus Stop and is listed.

PS & (raygans) Have you seen the user friendly version under Calis Bar & Restaurant Q's and Discussion. It is a printable version.
-
Just having a look now Highlander thank you
-
What a fantastic job you have done to list all the establishments that we all know and love to visit.I have on many occasions got home,to England,and thought "what was the name of that bar/restaurant" that we had visited.Like many people i love Calis and like to vary my bars and restaurants during the all too brief time that i am there, I visit this wonderful website often,even though i have rarely posted.I was incensed by someone who posted negative comments about a job well done.Regards,Alan.
-
Thank you Alan - your kind words are much appreciated :-\.
If I can use your post to remind people about the booklet version under Calis Bar & Restaurant Q's and Discussion I'd be grateful.
Thanks again :)

-
Anyone know where the Enur hotel is in calis. I have been given vague instructions so i'm bound to get lost again! Been to the same place three times in calis and got lost three times too! Wasnt the enur hotel though - but anyone know a rough guide to where it is? a street numer or name would do as i have a quite detailed map of the area showing the main roads and streets with names and numbers on them?
Thanks
-
Also Bostans, if it hasn't already been mentioned, is no longer on the front that is now Da Vinci's
-
Brilliant Highlander, well done. We were only discussing last night as to how many bars & restaurants are along the front, now we know! A very useful guide which means we now know exactly where a recommended establishment is and those that are advised to avoid. :D

I think it's the third turning on the left as you head towards the beach from the Gunlukbasi road.

A booklet version complete with maps, which will fit into a ladies handbag or jacket pocket, is still available for a small donation to the 3C's Charity ;D

It is on one of the few Calis streets with a "real" name - ibrahim Gül Caddesi.
