Quick answer

A relaxed 2.5-hour catamaran cruise on the emerald waters of Green Canyon — panoramic views of pine-clad mountains, calm sheltered water and open deck space to enjoy the scenery.

About this trip

Step aboard a spacious catamaran and glide across the emerald waters of Green Canyon, the vast reservoir above Oymapinar Dam near Manavgat. For two and a half hours the boat cruises between steep, pine-covered canyon walls while you relax on deck and take in the mountain scenery — calm, sheltered water all the way. The catamaran tour is the shorter, easygoing way to see the canyon: perfect for families with children, guests who prefer a gentler pace, or anyone who wants the full Green Canyon experience without giving up the whole day. There is a stop on the water to swim in the cool, crystal-clear reservoir before the boat turns back. Hotel pickup can be arranged from the Side and Manavgat area every day, from Alanya every day in the summer season, and from Belek and Antalya on Mondays and Thursdays. Children aged 3-11 join at a reduced rate.
