With the Side Boat Tour, you will swim in both fresh and salty waters in the emerald green waters of the Manavgat River and see dolphins, caretta caretta and sea turtles. You will have an unforgettable boat tour with foam party and animations.
For the Side boat tour, we pick up our guests from their hotels with our comfortable buses between 08:30 and 09:30 from the side area. After all our guests are picked up from their hotels, our bus brings you to our pier by the Manavgat river. Along the way you will enjoy the beautiful view of the forest until you reach our dock. About half an hour after being picked up from your hotel, our bus arrives at the Pier. You are greeted by our friendly staff on the boat.
Our boat has 3 floors. On the first floor, we have a bar where you can get your drinks, comfortable seating groups and 10 showers at the back of the boat. Under the first floor, we have 15 toilets and also changing cabins. On the second floor we have another bar, comfortable seating, a dance floor where you can enjoy the dance and foam party.

While you enjoy swimming on the beach, our kitchen team will grill trout and chicken for lunch and prepare the buffet. When you return to the boat, you can have your lunch from the buffet. After lunch we will leave the river and head towards Side. After leaving the Bosphorus, we will arrive at the historical side peninsula in 45 minutes. On the way to the historical side peninsula, we will have the chance to see dolphins and caretta caretta sea turtles. When we see them, we will try to stay with them for a while. Thus, we will have the agency to take pictures. Then we will continue on our way to the historical peninsula.
When we arrive in front of the historical peninsula, we will stop for our second swimming break. Our second swimming break will be 45 minutes in front of the historical peninsula in front of the magnificent view of the temples of Apollo and Athena. During the second swimming break, you can jump from the boat into the sea or swim in the sea using the 10 swimming ladders behind our boat or enjoy the view of the ancient city of Side. After the second swimming moia, we will start the return journey to oogaz. Our return to the Manavgat Bosphorus takes about 45 minutes.
On the way back, there will be a dance and foam party on the second floor. This is a party that guests of all ages from 7 to 70 will love and enjoy. You can enjoy the foam party and animations on the second floor of the boat. We will have our third swimming break when we return to the mouth of the river. Our third break takes about 20 minutes. After the third swimming break, we will return to our pier. From there, we will drop off our guests to their hotels with our comfortable buses. All our guests will arrive at their hotels between 17:00 and 17:30.

After our tour starts, we will go to the Manavgat strait, where the river meets the sea. After departing from the dock, we will reach the strait in 35-40 minutes. Along the Tol you can see shipyards, trout farms, Taurus mountains and Manavgat football stadium. We will have a chance to see turtles on the river bank. When we come to the Bosphorus, we will moor our boat to our pier and take our first swimming break. The name of the place where we stopped for a swimming break is Cennet Play. Here, the emerald green water of the Manavgat river meets the blue waters of the Mediterranean. This is one of the rare beaches in the world where you can swim in both fresh and salt water.
