Welcome to Kardak Tourism. We pride ourselves in offering the best excursions in and around Dalyan, and also organise transfers to and from the airport. We are the main sponsors for the protection of Dalyan’s environment. Keeping the Caretta Caretta turtle nesting areas safe and the water ways clean are two of the main projects we are involved in.

We are situated in the small town of Dalyan in the province of Mugla on the South-Western Mediterranean. Dalyan is set in the centre of a broad delta whose natural beauty is completely unspoilt. This is one of the surviving corners of paradise, an area of outstanding natural beauty and historical interest.

The Dalyan Channel, through which water circulates between the Mediterranean and Koycegiz Lake slowly meanders, forming a network of small lakes and waterways through reed beds rising to between 3 and 5 metres in height. (The journey through this natural labyrinth is romantic and mysterious.) With its mixture of fresh and salt water, these wetlands have become home to vast numbers of fish and other water life, as well as the birds of many species which feed on them. Dividing the sea from the delta is the Iztuzu sandbar stretching for 5km east from the mouth of the channel. With its fine crystal sand, shallow turquoise sea and abundant sunshine, Iztuzu beach is the ideal seaside spot, perfect for swimming for 7 months of the year. It is this beach to which the endangered Mediterranean turtle, Caretta Caretta, has returned year after year to lay its eggs since time immemorial.

We hope you can join us on one of our many tours and look forward to welcoming you to Dalyan.
