Mud Bath
In Dalyan, we board boats that take us to our fist stop, where Dalyan and Köyceğiz Lake joins, for 10 minutes of information about Koycegiz Lake and its interesting history. After Köyceğiz Lake stop we take a short cruise to the Mud Bath (Peloid) by the lake. Among the other baths in the area, this mud bath is said to be the best, being the oldest and the most active one for thousands of years as way back as the Lycian era. There are several hot spring pools all of which smell sulphur heavily. The Peloid Mud Bath has amazing healing powers that actually cure ailments. Well, this you would find out because you sure will feel rejuvenated, your skin will feel and look smoother and it will definitely soothe you as you will literally shed toxins.
After our stop at the Mud Bath we take you to our restaurant, where there is an open buffet lunch provided for you, at the waterfront in front of the village. You get to make choices and taste of as many great sea foods since this is what Dalyan (meaning “fish farm”) is known for. We pride ourselves in serving the highest quality foods unlike other tour operators / providers that dramatically compromise quality for the sake of offering cheaper prices.
After the lunch break we board our boats back through a network of channels. On our way to Turtle Beach you will be amazed at the sight of the Lycian Rock Tombs (or King Tombs) – the remains of the antique trading city of Kaunos, where we have a brief stop to learn more about their history.
Turtle Beach
From our visit to Kaunos, we sail down the river for another fascinating sight awaiting you on the Turtle Beach (Iztuzu Beach) in Dalyan. It is a marine turtle, namely Caretta caretta (i.e. loggerhead sea turtle), which is the world’s second largest hard-shelled turtle. Although evidence is lacking, it is believed to have existed and have been breeding in the area for about 40 million years. You would do well to get your cameras ready at this point because you just might have the chance to take some photos of this historic wonder.
