Manavgat River Cruise & Foam Party

For the boat tour, we pick you up from your hotel in the Side area between 8:30 and 9:30 in our comfortable buses. Once all guests have been picked up, the bus takes you to our pier on the Manavgat River. On the way, you can enjoy beautiful views of the forest until we reach the pier. The bus arrives at the pier about half an hour after your hotel pickup. Our boat has three decks. On the first deck you'll find a bar for your drinks, comfortable seating areas and 10 showers at the back of the boat. The second deck has another bar, comfortable seating and a dance floor, where the dance and foam party takes place. On the third deck, a sun terrace invites you to sunbathe. Within about 20 minutes all guests are on board, and the tour begins. First we head to the mouth of the Manavgat River, where the river flows into the sea. There we moor at our jetty and take our first swimming break. The spot for our first swimming break is called Cennet Plajı (Paradise Beach). During the one-hour break you can swim, sunbathe or go jet skiing (jet ski at extra cost). While you enjoy the beach, our kitchen team grills trout and chicken for lunch and prepares the buffet. Back on board, you can help yourself to the lunch buffet. From the river mouth it takes about 45 minutes to reach the historic peninsula of Side. On the way, you may spot dolphins and loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta). In front of the historic peninsula we stop for our second swimming break. It lasts 45 minutes, with a magnificent view of the Temples of Apollo and Athena. During the second break you can jump from the boat into the sea, climb in using the 10 swimming ladders at the stern, or simply enjoy the view of the ancient city of Side. After the second swimming break we head back to the river mouth, which takes about 45 minutes. On the way back, the dance and foam party with entertainment gets going on the second deck. It's a party that guests from 7 to 70 will love. At the river mouth we take our third swimming break, which lasts about 20 minutes. Afterwards we return to our pier, and our comfortable buses take you back to your hotel. All guests are back at their hotels between 17:00 and 17:30.
