Overview

For those who'd rather reach Dalyan by sea than by road. A big two-deck boat, with a shaded lower deck with tables and an upper deck with sunbeds, sails about 2.5 hours from Marmaris, with a 40-minute swim stop on the way.

After a BBQ lunch in Dalyan you switch to small wooden boats. You swim for about 1.5 hours at İztuzu beach, with fresh water on one side and the sea on the other, where loggerhead turtles lay their eggs. Then you pass the Lycian King's tombs carved into the cliffs and stop at the sulphur mud baths.
