I understand that the further up you go the better they are, unfortunately we stopped at number 4, although our son loved it and it's definite must, make sure you pick the right restaurant!

Getting there is part of the expierence fantastic views over the bay. The cave is so facinating, mother nature at the best. A must!!!

I visited this location a couple of years back with a friend. It's such a nice contrast to the busy Alanya city life. Dimcay is up in the mountains, so some bug spray and lots of tanning lotion is advisable. Bring your baithing suit, a towl and some clothes to change into post swimming in the cool river. The food in the restaurant we visited was really good, and I am sure this also goes for the others. Make sure you bring cash. It's not too expensive considering it's sort of a tourist magnet.

The drive along the Dimcay (Dim River) with its many restaurants is a nice experience. The Many restaurants in the valley offer special architecture with many, many types of sitting arrangements. Many of these have little permanent rafts in the which you can sit on ON the river. Many have beautiful Turkish carpets and pillows which give a special atmosphere. We were there in January and only a handfull were open and the clientele was mostly Turkish families. We found one with a 270 sqm playroom which was nice for the smallest. They also served delicious grilled trout (!) from the river. It is guite a long narrow valley (ca. 10 km) and the scenery is beautiful too. The dam at the end is big and supplies Alanya with water and electricity. We hired a car for this drive - nice family outing!

a great getaway option from heat and humidity in day time to explore a cool and green atmosphere in nature where you can swim in a river run out of mountain (if you are braveheart enough to jump in an "frosty" water of course, if not just paddle:)) and do water games and taste fresh and delicious food ,preferably fish which catched alive taken directly from a natural fish pool and cooked upon your order.

Dimcay is (i believe) a river that floods through Alanya, and alongside this river are alot of restaurants. With alot I mean alooooot, there must be one every 300-400 meters for a good 30-40 km span. We stayed at a restaurant about 10 km in and food was deliciously served while youre sitting on the water. It was very peaceful and you could hear the waterfall in the background. Great adventure with good company.

Nice place to go for a breakfast/brunch, a bit different if you compare it to the centre of alanya. For me it felt more turkish, not as touristy as it is in the centre. You can go there as a couple, as friends or as a family, doesn't really matter, it fits for all.

Recommend that you get up to the top of the dam for the views. Walk back to the outskirts of the city & down river to the main coast road. Take the bus back to the city. Regular bus services. Visit one of the 'Piknik" areas for a beer. Go early to get more shade.

We hired a moped at 25 Euros and drove ourselves up to the river which was an easy drive. We went up and down the other side of the mountain on our 50cc moped and it managed it all (which was a relief!).We stopped at one of the floating restaurants to have lunch and chose well - it was a public holiday in Turkey and the place was full of Turkish families having a day out. We watched people fishing and swimming in the restaurant whist we ate - fantastic!We both really liked this place and would come back.

Dim Cay is really amazing and there are several restaurants and picnics along the river. The water comes from the Taurus mountains and the water is cleanest at the top. The water is really cold and it isn't entirely sure that you want to swim when you come here. I like to come here just to relax, eat dinner in the traditional way and listen to the water flows past right under me.

There are several nice places to eat sitting in the river. Look for many people to get the best of them ;-)

Great food, great surrounding - Dim Cay is a beautiful loved by locals and tourists alike. The floating restaurants are set against the spectacular backdrop of the Dim Cay gorge. The water is always cool and its a great place to unwind.

Its so unique with the floating beds on the river, you can chill, eat, drink and swim and just have a great time. Just be warned that the water is sooooo cold!

Fantastic place. During the very hot summer month we have experienced nice and cool weather up at Dimcay. Many poplular restaurants along the river, one of the very best ones; Pinarbashi - next to the Dim Dam. While temperatures at Alanya beaches ab. 30 + C at sea, here you may take a bath in very clean freshwater at +20 C. Freshwater fish direct from the river is served - delicious. It is a must to visit during stay in Alanya-region.
