Traditional Dalyan Boat Trip

Tour Days:  Thursday
Price: 

Explore, Dream, Discover

This boat based delight of a day includes sunshine, swimming, stupendous sustenance and an array of amazing historic sites for you.

We meet and greet at our office just before 10am then walk a short distance to our private boat, the Dalyan Lotus, where Captain Ersin and his crew will offer you on board with welcome drinks and nibbles. 

We cruise first down the river to Alagol, a picturesque lake stop, to have your first swim of the day in the magical thermal waters or just relax on board enjoying the sunshine, drinks and good company. 

We then head to Little Dalyan, so called because of the fish traps there (the word Dalyan means Fish Trap). This is a lovely location at the end of the delta, where you can swim, stroll along the eponymous Turtle Beach next to the Mediterranean, enjoy the varied bird life in this twitchers’ paradise, maybe see Loggerhead Turtles hunting blue claw crabs and even try a bit of crabbing yourselves. 

Our sumptuous lunch includes freshly barbecued meat and fish, home grown vegetables and salads, delicious mezze and much more.  We cater for all dietary requirements. Just let us know in advance.
We also offer homemade çiğköfte, a popular local dish you may not have tasted before. Throughout the day, there are always nibbles and fresh fruit on offer, just in case the lunch is not enough!

After lunch, we meander back up the river to Sultaniye, to relax in the natural hot springs. 

Our last swim stop is in the idyllic Koycegiz Lake, an amazing location for some stunning souvenir photos (or for that last sundowner drink. After all, it is always 5 o’clock somewhere).

We arrive back in Dalyan around 5pm, replete and relaxed after a mega chilled day.

“Soak up the sun, swim in the sea, breathe in the serenity”Your happiness is our happiness
