Side Dolphin Island Boat Trip – A Fun-Filled Cruise with a Splash of Magic

Looking for a relaxing yet exciting boat tour in Side? The Side Dolphin Island Boat Trip is one of the most popular excursions in the Side-Manavgat area—and for good reason. This full-day adventure offers river and sea cruising, refreshing swimming breaks, entertainment, and the chance to spot dolphins in their natural habitat. Whether you're with family, friends, or your significant other, this tour guarantees an unforgettable experience on the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean.

Cruise the Coastline, Swim Where Two Waters Meet

The tour starts with a hotel pick-up and transfer to the Manavgat River pier, where your boat adventure begins. As the cruise sails toward the point where the river meets the sea, you'll enjoy the tranquil scenery and your first swimming break. Here, you can choose to dive into either the cool river waters or the warm embrace of the Mediterranean Sea. Keep your eyes open—you might spot sea turtles gliding beneath the surface!

Dolphin Island & More: What Awaits You

After this refreshing stop, you'll head toward Dolphin Island, a charming islet named after the bottlenose dolphins that are sometimes seen in the area. If luck is on your side, you might even witness these graceful creatures swimming alongside the boat—an incredible moment to capture with your camera.

Next up is a delicious BBQ lunch served onboard. You’ll enjoy grilled chicken or fish, rice, salad, and fresh bread while floating gently on the sea. After lunch, another swimming break gives you more time to relax, snorkel, or simply enjoy the view.

Fun and Foam on the Return Cruise

As the boat cruises back to Manavgat, the fun continues with an energetic foam party. Dance to upbeat music, join in the entertainment, and enjoy one last dip in the sea before returning to shore. After docking, you'll be comfortably transferred back to your hotel with great memories and maybe even some dolphin sightings to share.
