Side Dolphin Boat Trip from Çolaklı, at the Western End

Çolaklı is towards the far western end of the belt, with only Gündoğdu beyond it. Guests here sometimes wonder whether they are too far out for the trip. They are not.

Short answer

Çolaklı is inside the standard pickup belt, so your hotel transfer is in the fare like everywhere else. Being further west of Side changes one thing only — the time the vehicle reaches you, which we confirm the day before. The price, the boat, the stops and the 10:00 departure are identical for every area.

Far west, still included

The operator's belt stretches along the shore, Gündoğdu at its western tip and Kızılot at its eastern one, plus Manavgat town on the river. Çolaklı is the second area from the western end, between Gündoğdu and Evrenseki. Distance is not priced: there is no western supplement and no separate transfer fee. An adult ticket is €21 here exactly as it is in the centre.

We publish no drive times and no pickup clock times for any area, because they move with the hotels on each morning's round. You get yours personally, in a message the day before, together with the exact meeting point at your hotel. If you have not received it by the evening, ask us for it.

Booking from Çolaklı

Choose Çolaklı in the booking form, find your hotel in the list — it is printed on this page too — and fill in the guests: from 11 at the adult price, 2 to 10 at the child price, younger ones free. A reference appears at once. No card is asked for; you hand over euros when you travel.

If your hotel is missing, type its name and the operator confirms the pickup. If you are staying west of Gündoğdu, outside the belt, that is an enquiry rather than a booking: send us your hotel and date.

Plans can still change

If the dolphin boat ends up clashing with another plan, you can withdraw at no cost until 48 hours ahead by sending us a single message. Our page on how booking works covers the rest, and every area is listed on hotel pickup.

Questions

Before you ask us

Is Çolaklı too far for the trip?
No. It is within the standard belt, and the transfer is included.
Will I be picked up much earlier than people in Side?
Your time depends on your hotel and that morning's round. We send it the day before rather than guess now.
I'm staying west of Gündoğdu. Can I come?
That is outside the standard belt, so contact us with your hotel and date and we tell you what is possible.
