About Dalyan
This page describes Dalyan in Muğla Province of Turkey, not the city of Dalian in China. For Dalyan village in the Troad Peninsula south of Çanakkale, see Geyikli. Dalyan is a small resort town in Lycia on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. It's administratively part of Muğla province and in 2020 had a population of 5564. The main attraction is the ancient port of Kaunos, which silted up and lost its importance when a sandbar formed across the river estuary. This turned the navigable bay into a reedy wetland, and the site was abandoned in the 15th century AD.
