Itinerary
Day 1
Meet at your Belek hotel for pickup; transfer to Oymapınar Dam for the Green Canyon boat experience, lunch, and return transfer to Belek.
Hotel pickup and transfer to Green Canyon (Oymapınar Dam)
We collect guests from their hotels in Belek and drive to the Oymapınar barrage. Pickup times vary by hotel; the driver will follow the pre-arranged pickup route and collect everyone before the transfer to the dam (approx. 1 hour 30 minutes driving time).
Tips from local experts:
- Be ready at your hotel's main entrance gate at the confirmed pickup time — most hotels require pick up at the main gate rather than the reception.
- Keep your mobile phone switched on and reachable; the operator will send the exact pickup window by message after booking.
- Bring a light jacket for the morning transfer; mornings in June can be cooler in the mountains compared with the coast.
Green Canyon boat trip, swimming breaks, lunch at local restaurant
Board the waiting boat at Oymapınar barrage for a guided cruise through the reservoir. The program includes swimming breaks in calm water, time to relax and watch nature, followed by lunch at the restaurant next to the barrage. Unlimited soft drinks are provided with lunch. After lunch there is time for a short walk or fishing by the barrage.
Tips from local experts:
- Bring swimwear, a towel, and a spare change of clothes; drying facilities are limited so bring a quick-dry towel or cover-up.
- Wear water shoes or non-slip sandals for boarding the boat and walking on wet surfaces near the barrage.
- Fishing equipment is included — if you plan to fish, ask the guide for basic instructions and safety rules before you start.
Return transfer and hotel drop-off in Belek
After the boat trip, lunch and a short free period for a walk or fishing by the barrage, we board the vehicle and return to Belek. Guests will be dropped back at their hotels in the usual order determined by route planning.
Tips from local experts:
- Collect all personal items before leaving the restaurant and boat — check pockets and camera bags, and keep valuables in a secure, waterproof pouch during water activities.
- Drop-off order is organized by routing; allow extra time after return to the barrage for vehicle regrouping and hotel distribution.
- If you have evening plans, factor in a short rest after return — the transfer arrives in mid-afternoon.
