The white, foaming water of the Manavgat Waterfalls flows powerfully over the rocks. Near the waterfalls are shady tea gardens providing a pleasant resting place.[2]
The Oymapinar Dam is located 12 km (7 mi) to the north of the river.[3]
During floods, the Manavgat Falls may disappear under high water.[4]
