Your pickup from Titreyengöl

Pickup arrives mid-round. The hotels here ring a small lake rather than lining a single strip, so the minibus takes them in order and the exact time depends on which side of the water you are on. You get that time the day before, and you are returned to the same entrance in the afternoon or evening.

  • Meeting point is usually your hotel's main entrance or security gate.
  • Your exact pickup time is confirmed the day before the tour.

What Titreyengöl is like

Titreyengöl means trembling lake: the water is shallow and sheltered, so the surface shivers in the lightest breeze — local legend prefers a story about birds whipping up the water to drive hunters away. The hotels sit between the lake, the Sorgun pine forest and the sea, about seven kilometres from the old town, ten to twelve minutes by road.

About the Pirate Boat Adventure

The Side Pirate Boat trip is a full-day family cruise on a multi-deck wooden galleon that sails from the Manavgat River. With a costumed pirate crew, a treasure hunt on the beach and a swimming stop in safe shallow water, the day is built around children — while shaded lower decks keep parents comfortable.

Tour programme

  1. 08:30–09:30 — pickup from your hotel (transfer included in the price).
  2. 10:00 — the wooden galleon departs from the Manavgat River; choose a shaded lower deck or the open upper deck.
  3. Live music, games and a costumed animation team keep the entertainment going throughout the day.
  4. Anchor stop in the river delta: pirate shows, a treasure hunt on the beach, tug-of-war and free face painting for every child.
  5. Swimming at the same shallow spot in both fresh river water and the warm sea — safe for kids; life jackets are mandatory for children and adult supervision is required.
  6. Fresh lunch served on board, with a child-friendly menu.
  7. Foam party on deck.
  8. Return in the afternoon and transfer back to your hotel — about 7 hours in total.

Please note: all drinks, including water, tea and fruit juice, are sold separately at the on-board bar, so bring some cash. Sea insurance and life jackets for all ages are included; the activities are designed for children aged 3 and up, and kids aged 0–2 travel free.

Frequently asked

What time is hotel pickup from Titreyengöl?

Mid-morning. The lake is roughly seven kilometres from the centre and falls in the middle of the collection order, so it is neither an early start nor a late one. The exact time follows the route and the hotels booked that day, and we confirm it the evening before.

Where do the boats depart from?

Very close by. The river piers are just along the coast, and the old-town harbour is ten to twelve minutes in the other direction — the transfer covers whichever one your boat uses, and your confirmation names it before you set an alarm.

Do I pay in advance?

No. Booking is confirmed instantly and you pay on the boat on the day, in cash or by card. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before.

What time does the pirate boat tour start?

Hotel pickup is between 08:30 and 09:30, and the galleon departs from the Manavgat River at 10:00.

How long does the tour last?

Around 7 hours in total; you return to your hotel in the afternoon.
