Dalyan is a picturesque town sitting upon a riverbank on Turkey’s Mediterranean Coast. Popular with families and couples alike, it offers exciting breaks as well as romantic getaways.

A short dolmus journey will bring visitors from the village centre to the unspoilt beach. Boasting a wide sweep of golden sand and warm turquoise waters, it is ideal for sunbathing, strolling, paddling with the kids or watersports. The beach is out of bounds during the night as it is a site for nesting turtles.

The area’s underground springs make the surroundings distinctly lush and fertile. Therapeutic hot springs and mud baths offer the chance for even further relaxation on a Dalyan holiday.

More adventurous holidaymakers might like to try out such recreations as boat trips, deep sea fishing, jeep safaris and white water rafting.

Bargain hunters will be able to pick up a few local souvenirs at Dalyan’s weekly market.

Following a day of lounging on the beach and trying out some of the activities on offer, visitors can unwind in one of the many eateries or bars. For bigger nights out, there are a couple of clubs located on the edge of the town – so as not to disrupt the peaceful nature of the centre.
