Notice to yachtsmen in the eastern med:
Discover the beauty of Dalyan
Are you on a yacht in Ekincik bay? Don’t pass up the opportunity to cruise up the Dalyan River. The Dalyan River is full of picturesque scenery and fascinating history that shouldn’t be missed. Though your yacht can’t traverse the river due to shallow mud flats at the mouth, my flat-bottomed river boat is available for an amazing trip up the river. Enjoy the freedom to explore at your own pace.
The tour will be designed to accommodate your schedule and interest, ensuring that your time is spent exactly as you desire. Do you want to linger at the historical sites, relax on the boat and enjoy the beautiful nature or pause for a leisurely canal-side lunch? The choice is yours...
See the unspoiled İztuzu Beach
İztuzu Beach is a lesser-known gem of the Mediterranean. 7 kilometres stretch of coastline which includes glistening golden sands and crystal-clear turquoise waters.
Relax during the river cruise
Surround yourself with natural beauty on a relaxing river cruise. The maze-like passages of the Dalyan Delta will surely remind you of "The African Queen" movie.
Spot the caretta caretta's
Kingfishers, sea turtles, the Carretta Carretta, all frequent these waters, so it is very likely that these animals will be seen while cruising up the river.
Discover Kaunos
Don’t miss visiting the ancient Lycian/Greek/Roman city of Caunos, where the ruins include a Byzantine church, a theater, a Roman bathhouse, and an agora.
Adore Dalyan’s Lycian Rock Tombs
You will be wowed by the small collection of six 3000-year-old Lycian cliffside rock tombs located in the mountains along the river. You will have a great view from the boat.
Enjoy A Delicious seafood Lunch
Are you hungry? We can stop at a famous river side restaurant that offers fresh seafood straight from the Dalyan River. Rather no seafood? There are plenty of other delightful dishes to choose from.
Walk Through The Town of Dalyan
The quaint, picturesque town of Dalyan draws visitors from all over the world. Spend the afternoon exploring this charming village before heading back down river back to Ekincik bay.
