Explore the glory of Turkey's natural beauty
Dalyan is a largely undeveloped, tranquil village offering a significant number of natural and historical attractions. Or you could just relax on the spectacular Iztuzu beach and bath in the warm, shallow water. Nearby Iztuzu beach is one of the world's few remaining breeding grounds for loggerhead turtles, and so efforts have been made to conserve the area's astounding natural beauty. The surrounding wetlands are a haven for a variety of wildlife and birds, and the town is offset by a backdrop of pine-covered mountains and lush fields, making Dalyan a perfect holiday destination for nature lovers.
The town is set on the winding Dalyan River, which flows between the Mediterranean Sea and Lake Koycegiz; opposite the town, on the other side of the river, are the ruins of the ancient city of Caunos, dating back to the third century.
There is plenty to see and do on holiday in Dalyan. Boat trips are immensely popular, as are jeep safaris, mountain biking, sea kayaking, paragliding, fishing, snorkelling and a microlight flight over the spectacular Dalyan Delta, which offers incredible views.
