Icmeler Dalyan Turtle Beach Boat Trip by Boat Barkas

Discover the Marmaris Dalyan Turtle Beach Tour! Cruise the Dalyan River, relax at Iztuzu Beach with its loggerhead turtles, and rejuvenate in soothing mud baths. Nature and fun, all in one!

One of the highlights of the Marmaris Dalyan Tour is the journey on a traditional Barkas boat, crafted specifically for navigating the narrow channels of the Dalyan River. These flat-bottomed boats glide gracefully through the reeds, offering an intimate connection with the area’s tranquil beauty. As you silently pass through marshlands, you'll witness stunning scenery and spot diverse wildlife, including playful turtles and elegant herons. This authentic boat ride adds a unique charm to your adventure.  

Your day begins with a peaceful cruise along the breathtaking Dalyan River. Surrounded by lush greenery and gentle sounds of nature, the river exudes a serene ambiance. Keep an eye out for herons, kingfishers, and other wildlife as the boat meanders through the pristine waters. This scenic ride is the perfect way to immerse yourself in the calm and beauty of the region, setting the tone for a memorable day.  

Next, you’ll arrive at Iztuzu Beach, famously known as Turtle Beach. This idyllic stretch of golden sand serves as a vital nesting site for the endangered loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta). Whether you choose to swim in the crystal-clear waters, lounge under the sun, or marvel at the conservation efforts, this visit is a harmonious blend of relaxation and ecological wonder.  

End your adventure with a visit to Dalyan’s famous natural mud baths and thermal pools. Cover yourself in mineral-rich mud, allow it to dry under the sun, and rinse off to reveal soft, glowing skin. These therapeutic baths offer a blend of fun and relaxation, leaving you refreshed and revitalized—a perfect conclusion to an unforgettable day.
