town’, Kaleici, with its beautifully
restored Ottoman mansions and Hadrian’s
Gate.
-
The
impressive ruins - including an amphitheatre

at an altitude of over 1000 metres up a
mountainside. The mountain vistas from here

islands well scattered with very distinct

Dalyan
Delta, where a real highlight is a trip
in a small local craft through a maze of
reeds. The delta, with a long, golden sandy
beach at its mouth, is a nature-conservation
area, and a refuge for large sea turtles
(caretta caretta) and blue crabs. A stop
will be made at Caunos which was an important
city and port on the Mediterranean from
400 B.C. until the harbour silted up and
the sea retreated 5km to the south. At a
bend in the river, high on the cliff face,
you can view magnificent tombs which were
carved into the rock in the 6th century
B.C
