Most people won't have thought of the southern coast of Turkey being a White Water Rafting venue but we are able to offer an excellent days rafting on the Dalaman River, this course is fairly gentle and suitable for beginners.

The journey from Akyaka takes approximately an hour and you will travel towards Dalaman and then up into the mountains where you will join the Rafting School. Before being let loose on the river the competent instructors give a short lesson and ensure that you are equipped with hard hats and life jackets. Once in your rubber boat there is further instruction before the journey down river commences. In places the river is very calm and you will be able to paddle slowly and enjoy the magnificent scenery and peaceful surroundings. When you come to the rapids the fun starts, manoeuvre the boat over the rapids and keep it upright or be thrown into the river! ! If that is your fate, don't worry, the instructors are on hand with a rescue line.

Halfway down we stop for a barbeque lunch and the chance of body rafting!! ie: White water rafting with no boat!!! In the afternoon we continue down river with a short stop at a small sandy cove.

Having travelled 12 kilometres down river you will be met and brought back to Akyaka.

This is an excellent day's fun. We advise that you wear swimming costumes with T.Shirts and a good pair of canvas shoes (not flip flops as they fall off). If any members of your party wish to accompany the trip but not participate in the rafting this too is possible.
