Overview
Leaving Side's ancient harbour for your group only, this short trip first passes the Temple of Apollo at the tip of the peninsula. After a short run along the shore, the boat turns towards the setting sun and cruises at a gentle pace. A brief swim can be arranged offshore, and dolphins are sometimes seen on the route, though not guaranteed. The standard outing is about an hour, but it can be extended to two to four hours, combined with a moonlight cruise, and dinner can be added.
