Dalyan, Turkey

Discover Dalyan – A Hidden Gem by the Mediterranean

Welcome to Dalyan, a truly unique destination where natural beauty and tranquil charm come together. Nestled along the banks of the River Dalyan and surrounded by pine-clad hills, this picturesque town is just moments from where the river meets the Mediterranean Sea.

A Beach Like No Other

Dalyan’s stunning beach is a wide stretch of golden sand lapped by crystal-clear waters. Thanks to its protected status—it's a nesting site for the endangered loggerhead turtle—it remains unspoiled and never overcrowded. A few relaxed beach bars offer drinks and light bites, perfect after a refreshing swim.

Scenic Journey to the Shore

Getting to the beach is part of the adventure. Step aboard a charming riverboat near the town center and enjoy a peaceful 30-minute cruise through reed-lined waterways. Along the way, you’ll pass the famous Lycian rock tombs carved into the cliffs—a perfect opportunity for photos and sunbathing before you even reach the sea.

A Town Full of Character

Dalyan is the perfect blend of laid-back and lively. Explore its bustling harbourfront, lively weekly market, and a great selection of shops, bars, and restaurants. When the sun goes down, enjoy music bars, a welcoming disco, or simply a quiet drink under the stars.
