There are many beaches for swimming and sunbathing-Aydinlik Beach and Karasu Köyü Beach are the picks of the bunch. 

The Cave of Zeus (Zeus Magarasi) is a popular tourist attraction within the reserve, and excellent hiking opportunities await on the park's network of forest trails. This is top of the things to do list for nature-loving tourists who want to get away from town
