From Kumköy Beach, you’ll cruise toward the Manavgat River, Side’s ancient port, and Dolphin Island, with three swim stops, grilled chicken or fish lunch, soft drinks, music, and a foam party. Hotel pickup and return are included. Dolphin sightings are possible, never guaranteed.

“Great trip overall, additional swimming opportunity would be nice after the first swim stop to get to Dolphin island, food was lovely, great bar service, entertainment was great for the young ones, the music was great. Return transfer- the driver dropped off main road and asked us to walk the remaining- not sure why as it was accessible for him to reach Lovely day at sea and we did see turtles but no dolphins”

“Great trip for families , was contacted by WhatsApp the day before to arrange exact pick up time. Food was good for adults but not so much for kids if fussy chicken /whole fish with rice and salad . Can buy drinks and snacks with cash at reasonable price and free snorkel hire with refundable deposit. Life jackets also available to use. Kids enjoyed foam party at the end. Saw dolphin and sea turtles”
