Daylan and Caunos

Upon arrival at the port of Marmaris, our Shore2Shore guide, identified by their sign, will be waiting to start a wonderful excursion. We will head on a comfortable journey of approximately an hour and a half towards Dalyan, a charming tourist town with much to discover.

From there, we will board a “kayik”, a traditional wooden boat equipped with a diesel engine. During a pleasant navigation of about 40 minutes, we will head to Caunos, an ancient and captivating site located on the shores of Dalyan Lake.

We recommend bringing warm clothing, especially if you visit us in spring.

Once we dock at the Caunos pier, we will begin a fascinating walking tour through this historic Hellenistic settlement. We will explore the magnificent Roman Ruins and the impressive Byzantine Basilica, which offer an authentic history lesson in a unique setting.

After this cultural experience, we will return to the "kayik" to enjoy the return trip sailing back to Dalyan.

Once the excursion is finished, we will head back to the port of Marmaris, where we will say goodbye, hoping this visit remains in your memory as a beautiful souvenir of your trip.
