Manavgat River Boat Tour from Antalya offers a perfect one-day escape for nature lovers and culture enthusiasts. This tour will let you discover the stunning natural beauty of Manavgat while enjoying a relaxing and memorable day. Located around 60 km from Antalya, Manavgat is well-known for its river and waterfall that share the same name.
Our Antalya to Manavgat boat tour begins with a 3-hour boat ride on the Manavgat River, historically known as Melas. Originating from the lush green Taurus Mountains, The Manavgat river is one of the most important rivers in the Mediterranean Region. It flows for 93 km before reaching the Mediterranean Sea, and plays a crucial role in the region’s ecosystem with the Oymapınar and Manavgat Dams.
Departing from the Manavgat river pier, our boat will navigate the clear and green waters, offering you a peaceful and scenic journey. You’ll have the chance to observe the rich vegetation along the river, watch birds soaring overhead, and, if you're lucky, spot sea turtles swimming below the surface.
On the Manavgat river cruise, Our first stop is at the Manavgat Bogaz, a unique natural location where you can enjoy both fresh and salty waters. On one side of the beach, you’ll experience the cool, fresh water from the Manavgat River, and on the other side, the salty and wavy waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Here, you can swim in both waters, relax on the sandy beach, or enjoy thrilling water activities like Jet Ski. During this stop, lunch will be served on the boat, allowing you to enjoy your meal while soaking in the beautiful surroundings.
Our next stop is the stunning Manavgat Waterfall, located 3 km northwest of Manavgat. Although not very high, the waterfall is wide and powerful, creating a mesmerizing visual spectacle. You’ll have one hour of free time to take photos of this breathtaking scene, sip tea in the nearby gardens, and relax while listening to the calming sounds of the cascading water.
The last stop of the day is the Manavgat Market, the largest market in the Antalya region. Here, you’ll have two hours of free time to explore the vibrant stalls. From fresh produce like fruits and vegetables to local spices, clothing, souvenirs, and handmade crafts, you’ll find a wide range of products at affordable prices. This is also a great chance to experience the local culture of Manavgat.
