Are you a Polish visitor after a boat trip around Side? We run boats from Side, Manavgat, Antalya, Alanya, Belek and Kemer, so you can pick a departure point near your hotel. Popular choices are the Green Canyon lake cruise (from EUR28 in Side) and the Side pirate boat (from EUR23). Prices are in EUR, hotel transfer is arranged, and you pay on the tour day.

\n\n

Why Polish holidaymakers book with us

We serve guests from every major market on this coast, and Polish travellers are a big part of that. Our job is simple: get you onto the right boat, near the right hotel, at a fair price, with no surprises. We publish starting prices in EUR because that is our base currency, and every product page shows the live figure for your dates.

We are honest about what we can and cannot promise. We do not claim a guaranteed Polish-speaking guide on every departure. Many crews in this region work with international guests every day, but the guide language depends on the specific tour and date, so check the guide language on the tour page before you book. If it matters to you, ask us and we will tell you what we know for that departure.

The most popular boat trips near Side

Side sits between two of the best boat days on the coast: the freshwater Green Canyon cruise up the Manavgat river, and the classic sea-going pirate boat. Both leave from the Side area and both are easy to reach from Side, Kumköy and Çolaklı hotels.

Green Canyon boat tour (Side): a calm lake and river cruise on the Oymapınar reservoir, green water and pine-covered hills. Starts from EUR28. See the Side Green Canyon boat tour.
Side pirate boat tour: a sea trip with swimming stops along the coast, aimed at families and groups who want time in the water. Starts from EUR23. See the Side pirate boat tour.

If you are staying elsewhere on the coast, we run the same style of day from other departure points too. Tell us your resort and we will point you to the closest boat.

\n\n

Green Canyon from every region

Green Canyon is the single most requested boat day we sell, and we run it from more than one departure point. The starting price changes by region because the coach distance to the lake is different, so choose the version that matches where you are staying.

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Tour	Departure region	Starting price (EUR)
Green Canyon boat tour	Side	from EUR28
Alanya Green Canyon boat tour	Alanya	from EUR38
Manavgat Green Canyon boat tour from Belek	Belek	from EUR48
Antalya Green Canyon boat tour	Antalya	from EUR54

Staying in Side gives you the lowest starting price at EUR28. If you are further along the coast, the version from your region saves you a long transfer even though the base price is a little higher. Ready to compare dates? Open our boat trips and filter by departure point.

Departure points by resort

Pick the hub closest to your hotel. Each one lists the boat days that leave from that region, so you are not booking a tour with a two-hour coach ride you did not expect.

Side and Kumköy: boat trips from Side
Antalya centre, Lara, Konyaaltı: boat trips from Antalya
Alanya and Mahmutlar: boat trips from Alanya
Belek: boat trips from Belek
Kemer: boat trips from Kemer

From Belek there is also a combined Manavgat market and boat tour (from EUR43) if you want to see the famous river market as well as the boat.

\n\n

How much a boat trip costs

All our prices are per person and quoted in EUR, our base currency. These are the approximate 2026 starting points; the exact figure for your date, and any child pricing, is always shown on the tour page.

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Type of trip	Example tours	Starting from (EUR)
Green Canyon lake cruise	Side to Antalya versions	EUR28 – EUR54
Sea trips	Side pirate boat and similar	EUR20 – EUR25
Suluada island day	Antalya Suluada island boat tour	EUR42 – EUR68

If you see a price quoted in złoty or pounds anywhere, treat it as an approximate conversion of the EUR price. The live figure on the tour page is the one that counts, because exchange rates move. We never lock a fixed non-EUR amount into a page.

\n\n

Hotel transfer and pickup

Transfer is arranged as part of the booking. Guests are picked up from their hotel in the morning; the exact time is confirmed the day before and varies from hotel to hotel, because the coach runs a route and your resort's slot depends on where you are on it. Please be ready in your hotel lobby a little before the confirmed time. If you are not sure your hotel is on the transfer list, ask us before you book and we will check.

\n\n

How booking works

Booking is straightforward. You reserve your seats online, and you pay on the tour day rather than upfront. That means you can hold your place now and settle payment with the crew or representative on the morning of the trip.

Choose your tour and departure region on the tour page.
Enter your date, number of guests and hotel details.
We confirm your pickup the day before.
You pay on the tour day.
