Start your day with an optional hotel transfer to Marmaris Marina, where the Orca Boat is waiting to take you on an unforgettable journey along Turkey’s spectacular Turquoise Coast. Sit back, relax, and enjoy panoramic views of the Mediterranean as you cruise through some of the region’s most beautiful scenery.
Your first stop is Aquarium Bay, a picture-perfect cove famous for its crystal-clear turquoise waters. Dive in for a refreshing swim, soak up the sunshine, or simply relax on board while surrounded by breathtaking coastal views.
After your swim break, continue your cruise towards Dalyan. During the approximately 2-hour boat journey, enjoy a freshly prepared lunch served on board, featuring chicken schnitzel, pasta, and fresh salad. There is plenty of time to unwind, enjoy the sea breeze, and take in the scenery.
Near İztuzu Beach, transfer to traditional smaller riverboats and begin your scenic journey through the peaceful Dalyan canals. Glide through lush green landscapes and narrow reed-lined waterways as you enter one of Turkey’s most fascinating natural areas.
One of the highlights of the canal cruise is the spectacular Lycian Rock Tombs. Carved high into the cliffs more than 2,000 years ago, these impressive ancient tombs offer a fascinating glimpse into the region’s rich history. The boats stop nearby, giving you time to take photos and admire these remarkable monuments.
Continue to the famous Dalyan Mud Baths, where you can enjoy free time to cover yourself in mineral-rich mud and have some fun with this much-loved local tradition. Afterwards, relax in the nearby thermal springs, surrounded by the peaceful Dalyan landscape.
Next, head to the stunning İztuzu Beach, also known as Turtle Beach. Stretching along a beautiful sandy coastline, this protected beach is one of the Mediterranean’s most famous natural treasures. Enjoy free time to swim in the clear sea, relax on the sand, or take a leisurely walk along the shoreline.
After your beach break, return to the Orca Boat and settle in for a relaxing cruise back towards Marmaris. Enjoy the final approximately 2-hour journey at sea, with plenty of time to admire the coastline and unwind after a full day of exploration.
Upon arrival at Marmaris Marina, your transfer vehicle will be ready to take you back to your hotel, bringing an exciting day of swimming, sightseeing, history, nature, and relaxation to a comfortable end.
