Dalyan river boat trip

Our day tour of Dalyan will start with a river boat trip. This romantic excursion along the Dalyan River Estuary will lead us to another wonderful location where we may relax in sulfuric mud baths and rejuvenate our skin. On our journey to the mud bath, we will appreciate the landscape of the reeds and nature, as well as the famed rock tombs of Dalyan. We’ll arrive at the famous Dalyan mud baths after this spectacular river boat ride. The mud baths are thought to help you feel and look younger, and a plunge in the sulfur springs afterward will refresh you.

Lunch at river side restaurant

We will serve an open buffet lunch in the village after the mud bath adventure. Different selections of traditional Turkish food are waiting for your taste.

The next stop on the itinerary will be a relaxing swim stop at Iztuzu beach. You can choose either the freshwater or saltwater, the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean sea to swim in. If you are lucky, you may see some Caretta Caretta turtles on the beach.

After the swim break at the Iztuzu beach, we will cruise back to our coach for the last part of the boat trip and head back to Fethiye. You may have a chance to taste the blue crab on the way back!
