Lake Bafa
An exceptional landscape where a serene saltwater lake is surrounded by mountains and the roofs of remote and traditional villages, Lake Bafa is a definite destination for nature lovers. Once part of the Aegean, the unspoiled lake was conceived through the development of the Great Menderes Delta. Reaching a maximum depth of 25 meters, the lake is surrounded by a lush environment of tamarisks, pine trees, and olive groves. The adjoining protected national park is also quite important due to around 30,000 different birds who call the area their home. Stay at one of the few down-to-earth pensions by the water and take part in activities such as bouldering, trekking, mountain biking, and kayaking.
