A very entertaining excursion that combines history, treatment, and relaxation on the beach. I can recommend both adults and children.
According to legend, the son of Apollo Miletos gave birth to twins, a boy Kaunos and a girl Byblis. Biblis's love for her brother crossed the boundaries of sisterly love, one day she could not stand it and confessed to Kaunos. The brother leaves and founds the new city of Kaunos, the ruins of which have survived to this day. Byblis goes in search of his brother and in desperation throws himself from the highest mountain. But the goddess of spring waters Nimpeler does not allow her to die, who turns Byblis into a spring of Dalyan. Here's a story...
We rested in Sarigerme. And we, during the excursion, were first brought to the hydrogen sulfide mineral springs in the village. Sultaniye. The temperature in the hot pool is 39 degrees. They were smeared with mud, useful-not-useful, but cool. Then they rode on a boat on the river.
We admired the Lycian tombs, which contained the burial places of the ancient rulers of Kaunos. And we sailed to the Iztuzu spit, where the replacement turtles Caretta-Caretta lay their eggs. Lively Turkish traders offer to taste blue crabs, which are cooked right there on the boats. If you have never tried it, then for the sake of interest you can. But before that we had an excursion to catch blue crabs (we caught, cooked and ate right away: ), there is a difference. Fresh, eat fresh. We were given 2 hours to swim on the spit and to the hotel.
