Dilek Peninsula National Park, National park in the Aegean region, Turkey.

The 277-square-kilometer park combines mountainous landscapes with Mediterranean forests, four sandy coves, and clear water beaches along the Aegean coast.

The Turkish Ministry of Forest and Water Management established the protected area in 1966, incorporating both the Dilek Peninsula and Menderes River Delta.

The region near Guzelcamli village functioned as a central meeting point for Ionian political and scientific discussions during the 9th and 8th centuries BC.

Visitors can access designated beaches with rental chairs and umbrellas, while hiking paths require permits for certain sections beyond the initial trail portions.

The park contains over 800 plant species and serves as a refuge for Mediterranean monk seals, wild horses, and numerous migratory birds including Dalmatian pelicans.
