Commencing from your hotel, you will embark on a picturesque journey towards Bafa Lake, which was formerly the extremity of Lade Bay until the Roman period. Due to sediment deposited by the River Meander, the lake lost its connection to the open sea around 400 AD. This lake is 15 km long, 10 km wide, covers an area of 700 hectares, and has a maximum depth of 25 meters. The lake also serves as a sanctuary for 208 bird species, including pelicans and storks, while fish such as sea bass, eels, and carp thrive in its waters. The surrounding area features cotton and olive agriculture, as well as beekeeping.

Herakleia, previously known as Latmos, was once a thriving town located at the base of Mount Latmos, which stands at 1,375 meters tall. The town's economy relied on agriculture, fishing, and maritime trade. Unfortunately, the city's decline was brought on by the River Meander's diversion, which disconnected the bay from the sea. The natural setting and the mountainous terrain where the city was built have given rise to numerous legends. For instance, the moon goddess Selene placed her beloved Endymion into an eternal sleep and visited him one night to make love to him. Herakleia is the next stop.
