Türkisfarbenes Wasser und Berghänge - unberührte Natur rundherum

Der Fluss Manavgat entspringt im westlichen Taurusgebirge und fließt durch die Stauseen Oymapinar (185 Meter hoch) und Manavgat über die Manavgatwasserfälle und die Stadt Manavgat. Der Fluss dient zur Trinkwasser- und Stromgewinnung. Im unteren Flussverlauf wird er von Ausflugsbooten befahren. Die Wassermenge variiert stark mit den Jahreszeiten und beträgt durchschnittlich 147 m³ pro Sekunde. Im Frühjahr werden bis zu 500 m³ pro Sekunde erreicht.

Mit einem der zahlreich angebotenen Bootsausflüge kann man rund um den Stausee und bis fast an die Quelle des Manavgat heranfahren und das türkisblaue Wasser geniessen.
Die türkisblaue Färbung des Wassers, vor allem im Frühling deutlich zu erkennen, ist auf das Mitführen unterschiedlicher Mineralien im Wasser zurück zu führen.
