The fast flowing rivers of the Toros mountains foam with white water, especially at snow melt in spring. Both 6-10 person rafts and two-seater canoes are available on the Kuprulu Cay and Dalaman rivers. After basic instruction, paddle practise takes place on a quiet stretch, before the rafts turn their noses to the swooping standing waves. After the thrills of splashing paddles, and just hanging on as the raft bucks beneath you, there is a welcome pause for a barbecued trout lunch. Rafting resumes, to a final spectacular rapid before the boats are hauled ashore for the next day's run.
Rafting is an all-day activity, including transfer at start and end and lunch. Trips are available each day between April and October at both locations, subject to weather in the spring.
