Boat Trip to Dalyan- Caunos, Turtle Beach includes Mud bath from Marmaris

After picking you up from your hotel, we board our boat and our tour begins. Our first stop is Aquarium Bay and we take a swimming break here.

We approach the magnificent sandy beach where the caretta carettas nest, get on the small boat from our big boat and move into the canal.

During the cruise, we see the historical Rock Tombs and our guide gives brief information. The temple tombs what we see today are the remnants of the Kaunos necropolis that once had over 170 rock-cut graves. The tombs mostly date back to mid 4th century BC and have influences of Anatolian, Greek and Persian elements. Although the tombs are inaccessible now, their imposing sight (seen best from across the Dalyan River or even sitting in a boat in this river) is a memorable one. You can see these sights depicted on covers of tourist guides, travel brochures and even in some TV documentaries.

The mud baths in Dalyan are rich in sulphur and contain minerals that soothe and rejuvenate your skin. Regular treatments can tighten up the skin, erase wrinkles and its said to be that the mud baths in Dalyan will make you look younger by 10 years! After having a mud bath in these pools, you wait for some time until the mud is dried down and now it’s time to clean off the mud pack at the hot springs. There are showers facilities near the mud baths, toilets and a cafeteria.
