King Rock Tombs
Yuvarlakçay
As you travel along the Dalyan River, the boat journey gliding through the reeds makes you feel as if you are stepping into a world where time slows down. Then, İztuzu Beach, reached afterward, is an ideal stop not only for a swimming break with its golden sands and crystal-clear sea, but also for feeling the preserved beauty of nature.

The King Rock Tombs add a mystical air to Dalyan’s silhouette; these magnificent structures carved into the rocks reveal the region’s historical richness. Later in the day, when you arrive at Yuvarlakçay, the atmosphere changes all at once; icy spring waters, the shade of plane trees, and the wooden platforms over the water offer visitors complete refreshment and tranquility. Here you can let your feet rest in the cool waters, taste local delicacies, and take a peaceful break while listening to the sounds of nature. The Dalyan - İztuzu Beach and Yuvarlakçay tour leaves a lasting impression as a perfect day route for those seeking both exploration and relaxation.
