Top Attractions in Dalyan
🐢 İztuzu Beach (Turtle Beach)
İztuzu is a stunning 4.5km stretch of sand where endangered loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) come to nest between May and September. To protect the turtles, part of the beach is closed at night during nesting season. It's accessible by boat from Dalyan town.
🏛️ Lycian Rock Tombs
Carved directly into the cliff face overlooking Dalyan, these 4th-century BC Lycian rock tombs are one of the most striking archaeological sights in Turkey. They're best viewed from the river on a boat tour.
♨️ Mud Baths & Thermal Springs
Dalyan is famous for its therapeutic sulphur mud baths and thermal springs. A session in the mud followed by a rinse in the thermal pool is a unique and relaxing experience — and great for the skin.
⛵ River Boat Tours
The main way to explore Dalyan is by flat-bottomed boat along the river. Most tours combine İztuzu Beach, the rock tombs, and the mud baths in a single day trip.
