About This Tour

This is the classic family pirate boat experience from Side. After morning hotel pickup you board a pirate-themed boat and cruise along the coast with swimming stops in the Mediterranean, including the popular spot where the Manavgat River meets the sea.The day is built around children: there is a treasure hunt, face painting and a foam party that usually takes place after the swimming stops. Adults can relax on deck, swim or join the fun. Lunch is served on board (typically grilled meat or chicken with salads, rice and bread) and soft drinks are included.The atmosphere is energetic and playful rather than quiet or luxury-focused. It works especially well for families with children aged 3–12, though couples and mixed groups also join. Life jackets are provided for all ages and the crew is used to looking after kids.Expect around six hours door-to-door. Bring swimwear, a towel, sunscreen and a waterproof phone case for the foam party. Alcoholic drinks and professional photos are extra. It is one of the most popular boat options in Side when travelling with children who want entertainment as well as swimming.

Local Tip

The foam party is the part children talk about for days. Sit near the middle or lower deck if you want to be in the middle of the action, or higher up if you prefer to watch. The river-mouth swim stop is usually the clearest water of the day.
