Board your gulet in Gocek harbour and head out of the harbour right away for a swim at Wall Bay 'Manastir'.

Day 2 Kaunos to Dalyan
Set off early and cruise to Ekincik where you will be picked up by a privately chartered wooden dinghy that will take you along the coast to Iztuzu Beach, nesting ground of the loggerhead turtle. From there you will be guided through the marshlands to the ancient city of Kaunos and the riverside town of Dalyan. If you like you can take a mud bath, see the natural hot springs, visit the impressive archaeological site and swim in the freshwater lake, before exploring the town of Dalyan with its riverside cafes and restaurants. Your dinghy will return you to your gulet just before sunset for dinner at anchor in the bay.
