Resting serenely between the renowned districts of Marmaris and Fethiye, Dalyan is a town that pulls at the heartstrings of its visitors with its charming authenticity. A shining symbol of environmental conservation, Dalyan gained international recognition in 1987 and became a protected Special Environmental Protection Area in 1988, owing to its significant role in saving the İztuzu Beach, a vital nesting ground for the endangered loggerhead sea turtles.

The rhythmic ebb and flow of the Dalyan Çayı River serve as the lifeblood of this delightful town, shaping it into an idyllic 'riviera' teeming with boats that transport visitors to local treasures. The river also gives the town its name as it houses "dalyans" or fishing weirs held over from centuries of rounded riverine culture. Enhancing its allure is the region's fertile land graced with flourishing agricultural bounty, making the pomegranate a treasured local gem.

Integral to Dalyan's unique appeal is its presiding over ancient history, with the town catering to history buffs with sites like the intriguing Lycian tombs carved into cliff faces and the ancient city ruins of Kaunos. As a glorious finishing touch, the town is embraced by the stunning İztuzu Beach, a haven for both sun worshippers and nature enthusiasts — all bounded by responsible eco-tourism practices. With such eclectic charm under its belt, it is no surprise that Dalyan effortlessly captures the hearts of wanderlusts from far and wide.

When to visit Dalyan

Blessed with blissful Mediterranean climate, the prime time to visit Dalyan falls between June and September when the days are gloriously sun-soaked. In July, the peak of the town's summer, expect temperatures that lace the salty sea breeze with a warm embrace reaching up to a golden 32°C. If you cherish those sun-drenched days, this is also the driest month for you with a scarce touch of rainfall.

From June to November, with the sea sporting an enticing average temperature of 23°C or higher, it's an ideal period to indulge in balmy beach activities. For those enchanted by the courtship of the loggerhead turtles with the İztuzu beach, remember the twinkling nighttimes from May to October are reserved to these captivating creatures as they lay their eggs and welcome new hatchlings into the world. For those craving sunshine, striking historical ruins, sustainable charm and, above all, the delightful dance of the Dalyan river, there's no time like the present to book your journey!
