Nestled about 60 kilometers away from Alanya, the picturesque town of Manavgat is renowned for its captivating river and majestic waterfall, offering an idyllic setting for a leisurely nature and sightseeing excursion.

 

     The Manavgat River, known as Melas in ancient Greece, originates from the rugged slopes of the Taurus Mountains, stretching across a length of 93 kilometers before gracefully meeting the Mediterranean Sea. Along its course, the river is adorned with two notable dams: the Oymapınar Dam and the Manavgat Dam, adding to the allure of its scenic landscape.

Here, you'll be captivated by the rhythmic cascade of water as it gracefully descends over the rocky precipice. Relax amidst the verdant surroundings, savoring the tranquil ambiance and cooling mist of the waterfall while capturing stunning photographs to cherish the moment.

 

     Next, embark on a leisurely boat tour along the tranquil waters of the Manavgat River, a serene three-hour journey offering moments of serene contemplation amidst nature's splendor. Keep a keen eye out for indigenous wildlife, as you may be fortunate enough to spot playful water turtles and graceful pelicans during your voyage.

 

     Pause for a refreshing swim at the sandy shores of 'Bosphorus Beach,' where the crystal-clear waters of the Manavgat River merge with the azure expanse of the Mediterranean Sea, offering a unique opportunity for a dual aquatic experience.

Indulge in a delectable lunch served onboard the boat, savoring the flavors of the region as you soak in the panoramic vistas.

 

     Concluding your excursion, delve into the vibrant ambiance of Manavgat Town, where you'll have the opportunity to explore one of the largest mosques in the area and peruse the bustling Manavgat Bazaar. Immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere, browsing an array of fresh produce, aromatic spices, and artisanal souvenirs, before bidding farewell to this enchanting locale.
