Alanya Green Canyon Boat Tour - A Day Full of Peace and Nature at Oymapınar Dam

For those who want to experience a different nature adventure from Alanya's azure sea, Green Canyon is like a hidden paradise. Alanya Green Canyon Boat Tour promises a peaceful day that allows you to discover the enchanting beauties of Oymapınar Dam located in the heart of the Taurus Mountains. With its turquoise waters, lush green forests, and postcard-worthy views, this boat tour is a must for nature lovers.

Where is Green Canyon and Why is it Special?

Oymapınar Dam, also known as Green Canyon, is located approximately 70 kilometers from Alanya, within the borders of Manavgat district. Oymapınar, Turkey's fourth highest dam at 185 meters, is not only an engineering marvel but also enchants its visitors with its unique natural beauties.

The water accumulated behind the dam has formed a magnificent turquoise-colored lake between deep valleys. The color of this lake turns emerald green with the reflection of the surrounding pine forests, hence the name "Green Canyon." With its steep cliffs, narrow passages, and untouched nature, this region offers one of the most impressive natural beauties of Alanya.

17-Kilometer Unique Boat Tour

The most special part of the Green Canyon Boat Tour is the approximately 17-kilometer boat journey on the dam lake. As your boat progresses through the narrow passages of the canyon, you encounter views that rival postcards at every turn. As you glide between steep cliffs, the silence and peace of nature embraces your soul.

We recommend keeping your camera ready throughout the boat tour. The color festival created by sunlight reflecting on the water creates dozens of frames you'll want to share on social media. In these moments, you'll be alone with nature and create the most special memories of your Alanya holiday.

Swimming Joy in Turquoise Waters

One of the greatest attractions of Green Canyon is the opportunity to swim in its turquoise clear waters. The waters of Oymapınar Dam remain quite cool even in summer months. Swimming in these ice-cold waters makes you feel reborn on hot summer days.

During the swimming breaks given during the boat tour, you find yourself in an environment you've never experienced before. Cliffs rising around you, turquoise water, and lush green nature... Don't forget to bring your camera to immortalize this unique moment.

Fishing Experience

If you wish, you can try your luck by getting a fishing rod during the boat tour. Fishing in the calm and fish-rich waters of the dam adds a different excitement to your tour. This small but enjoyable activity offers a fun and educational experience, especially for children. Fishing equipment is included in the tour, and our guides will help you.

Delicious Lunch at a Restaurant with a View

One of the essential stops of the boat tour is the lunch served at a restaurant with a magnificent view overlooking the dam lake. The delicious Turkish dishes you'll eat in the middle of nature, accompanied by bird songs, satisfy both your stomach and soul.

The lunch included in the tour is prepared with fresh and quality ingredients. Non-alcoholic drinks are also included in the tour, and you can purchase alcoholic beverages separately if you wish.

Who is it Ideal For?

Alanya Green Canyon Boat Tour appeals to a wide audience. It's ideal for anyone who loves nature, wants to spend a peaceful and quiet day, and is looking for a swimming experience different from the sea. Families, couples, groups of friends, and solo travelers greatly enjoy this boat tour.

Green Canyon Boat Tour is also a perfect alternative for those who experience seasickness. The calm waters of the dam lake make the boat trip comfortable for everyone.

What to Bring with You

For a perfect Green Canyon boat tour experience, bring swimsuit, towel, slippers, camera, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and cash for personal expenses. Considering that the dam water is cool, we also recommend bringing a light cardigan.
