CIGSE Boat Dalyan Tour | Iztuzu Beach, Ekincik Bays, Lunch and Swimming

Welcome aboard CIGSE Boat, a family-run boat business founded in Dalyan in 2016 by Cigdem and Sebahattin. Our daily catered boat tours depart from Dalyan and follow the river toward Iztuzu Beach before continuing to swimming locations around Ekincik. Our family team operates the experience with a three-person crew.

Our published route begins with the Lycian Rock Tombs, where we cruise through the reeds while sharing information about the rock-cut monuments. We then stop at the Fisheries Cooperative, where fresh Dalyan blue crab can be purchased, before continuing toward Iztuzu Beach. From there, the route reaches Ekincik Cave, Karacay, Semizce Bay and Dikilitas for swimming and time on the water.

Lunch is served while anchored at Semizce Bay, followed by a longer swimming break. The final published stop is Alagol, where guests can enter the naturally sulphurous water before seasonal fruit is served onboard.
