In this study, it has been investigated as detailed geological, hydrological, hydrogeological and hydrochemical features of water sources in the south of the Salda Lake basin. Mesozoic and Cenozoic rocks are spread in the region. Alluvium and limestones are the most important aquifers from the lithological units in the study area. The mean rainfall amount for the study area is 524.03 mm and evaporation is 368.55 mm. Groundwaters and surface waters are Ca-Mg-HCO3 and Mg-Ca-HCO3 facies. The increase of Mg are originated from Marmaris peridotite and Kızılcadag ophiolite and melange related to water‐rock interaction. Some of the waters in the study area are not suitable for use as irrigation water. Agricultural activity is most important pollution in the study area. Therefore, it was found that nitrate content exceeds the limit value in groundwater samples of S11. In addition, studies have been conducted to determine microbiological contamination and heavy metal contents such as Al, As, Cr and Fe. When compared with the national and international standarts for the usability of the water samples as the drinking water, İt can be seen that the sample S2 due to Al, the samples S14 ve S15 due to As, the samples S1-S3, S5-S15 due to Cr and the samples S1 and S5 due to Fe can not be used as drinking water. These increases are thought to be both geogenic and anthropogenic.
