Delikli Island is situated just off the coast, to the south-east of Ekincik. Sailors appreciate a shift in tempo when they dock at the island and embark on a small boat trip into the Dalyan Delta. The Delta features a lengthy, golden sandy shore at its entrance, serving as a nature conservation zone and a sanctuary for sea turtles (caretta caretta) and blue crabs.

At a curve in the river, elevated on the cliffside overlooking the intriguing ancient port city of Caunos, splendid tombs were hewn from the stone. Sailing south-east from Delikli Island, you reach Sarigerme, where delightful holiday resorts are situated amidst charming pine woods. Sailors will wish to dock at Baba Island, facing the unspoiled sandy shores.
