Dilek Peninsula-Büyük Menderes Delta National Park

Dilek Peninsula-Büyük Menderes Delta National Park is one of Turkey's most ecologically significant protected areas, located in the Aegean Region near the coastal town of Kuşadası in Aydın Province.

The national park holds international protection status under the Ramsar Convention, the Berne Convention, the Rio Convention on Biological Diversity, and the Barcelona Convention, recognizing its exceptional biodiversity and conservation value.
