Set Sail in Side: Where Sea Adventures Begin

Side, with its turquoise waters and dramatic coastline, is a paradise for anyone who loves being out on the sea. Whether you're traveling with kids, your partner, or solo, a boat tour is one of the most memorable experiences you can have in Side.

From relaxing cruises to adventurous pirate boats, there's a perfect boat tour waiting for every type of traveler.


1. Pirate Boat Tours – Fun for the Whole Family

These tours are a huge hit with families. Step aboard a pirate-themed ship where the crew dresses in costume, music plays, and kids take part in treasure hunts, face painting, and foam parties.
While the little ones are entertained, parents can relax on the sun deck. The tour usually includes lunch on board, swimming stops in quiet coves, and non-alcoholic drinks (with an all-inclusive option available on some tours).


2. Dolphin Island Boat Tour – Scenic and Serene

This full-day boat trip takes you toward the open sea and the chance to spot dolphins in their natural habitat (though not guaranteed). The tour includes several swimming breaks, sunbathing opportunities, and often a stop at a small beach or islet.
The boat is generally larger and more relaxed than pirate boats, making it perfect for older couples or families with teenagers.


3. Manavgat River Cruise and Bazaar

A wonderful mix of nature and culture, this boat tour cruises along the Manavgat River, stopping at the famous Manavgat Waterfall and giving passengers free time at the Manavgat open-air market.
Held on Mondays and Thursdays, the market is a great place to buy affordable clothes, souvenirs, spices, and local goods.
This tour is ideal for those who want to combine relaxation and local life.


4. Blue Lagoon and Caretta Bay Tour – Hidden Beaches

Escape the crowds with a trip to Side’s hidden coves and bays. This tour takes you to Blue Lagoon, Caretta Bay, and other untouched coastal areas where you can swim, snorkel, and enjoy the peaceful scenery.
Perfect for couples looking for a romantic, quieter day at sea.


5. Sunset Cruises – Romance on the Water

Imagine watching the sun set over the Mediterranean while sipping a drink on deck. Sunset boat tours from Side are often shorter in duration (2–3 hours) and feature calm music, champagne or cocktails, and intimate seating.
Ideal for honeymoons, anniversaries, or just a romantic break.


6. All-Inclusive Day Cruises – Food, Drinks, and Fun

These cruises focus on relaxation and value. They typically include:

  • Hotel transfers

  • Lunch and unlimited soft drinks

  • Swimming stops in crystal-clear bays

  • Optional extras like banana boat rides or snorkeling gear

They’re a budget-friendly choice for travelers who want everything organized.


What to Bring on Your Boat Tour

Don’t forget to pack:

  • Swimsuit & towel

  • Sunscreen and sunglasses

  • Hat or cap

  • Waterproof phone case or bag

  • Cash or card (for extras or drinks)

  • Snorkel gear (if not provided)

Most tours supply life jackets and have shaded seating.


Tips for Booking Your Boat Tour

  • Check the boat size: Smaller boats are more intimate, larger ones have more entertainment

  • Ask what’s included: Meals, drinks, and entrance fees can vary

  • Read reviews: Choose a local agency with transparent pricing and clear tour details

  • Reserve early in high season (June–September)


Final Word

No matter which boat tour you choose, sailing from Side is an unforgettable experience. Whether you're floating down a peaceful river, dancing on a pirate ship, or watching dolphins from a distance, you'll create memories that last a lifetime.
