Manavgat Havzası Toros Karst Kuşağı\'nın Batı Toros Dağları kesiminde, derinlik ve  yüzey karstının yoğun olarak geliştiği bir alanda yer almaktadır. Manavgat Havzası ve  yakınlarındaki en eski drenaj ağının parçaları Orta Miosen dönemine ait paleokarstik  vadilerden oluşur. Üst Tortonien\'de neotektonik hareketlerden önemli bir şekilde  etkilenen sahada, tektonik ve yapısal hatlarla uyumlu yeni bir akarsu sistemi  kurulmuştur. Bugünkü Manavgat Nehri Havzası ve drenaj ağı ile de uyumlu olan Üst  Miosen paleovadileri Manavgat Nehri vadi sisteminin temellerinin bu dönemde  atıldığını gösterir. Üst Miosen ve kısmen de Pliosen\'de Manavgat Nehri\'nin drenaj  havzası, Beyşehir ve Suğla göllerini çevreleyen dağların güney yamaçlarına kadar  uzanmaktaydı.

Manavgat Basin and the sections of  latest drainage network near to it are formed out of paleokarstic valleys belonging to  the Middle Miocene period.
