“The scuba diving is amazing. If you are a beginner in swimming or if you don’t know swimming, you will still have a fabulous experience. The instructor dives along with you and helps you in every step along the way. Must do activity if you are in Antalya. PS : The lunch can be better. Although it didn’t bother me much because of the scuba diving experience”

“What a great day diving. The instructors were really good and took as much time as you needed getting used to using the scuba equipment (it's such a different experience breathing normally when under water). Would thoroughly recommend and would certainly use again. Plenty of photos and videos taken when you are under the water, although this was €25 extra, however I did feel that was decent value for money. Just remember that for the photos and on board drinks you will need to pay cash........it's a bit of a walk to the nearest cash machine after the trip, and you will be accompanied by a member of the crew.…”

Explore Side’s underwater museum with two beginner-friendly scuba sessions, 110 sculptures, lunch, hotel pickup, and Mediterranean views.
“Ich habe Tickets für das Unterwassermuseum beim Tauchen in Side gebucht. Morgens wurde ich gegen 9:00 Uhr vom Bus abgeholt und zu den Toren von Side gebracht. Von dort mussten wir ca. 2 km in der prallen Sonne zum Tauchboot laufen – bei 40 °C sehr anstrengend. Nach kurzer Wartezeit startete das Boot. Beide Tauchgänge waren wirklich schön, die Skulpturen unter Wasser sind beeindruckend. Leider waren die Pausen dazwischen sehr lang und schlecht organisiert. Nach dem zweiten Tauchgang gab es ein einfaches Mittagessen; Getränke waren nicht inklusive (z. B. Eistee für 3 € bzw. plötzlich 4 $ bei Zahlung in Dollar). Die Guides waren freundlich, aber man fühlte sich nicht wirklich willkommen. Der Rü...”
Review of Alanya’s 7-hour scuba boat tour, with two guided underwater sessions, lunch, hotel pickup, equipment, and optional video.
“What an amazing experience. A little daunting if you are not confident in your swimming ability but I had a great time. The transportation was seamless and bang on time, all the staff were friendly and helpful, the training was very straight forward and the experience was unforgettable. The dinner was nice too. You even get a small certificate at the end and ofcourse photos are taken for the memories which for 40€ for both photos are videos, it’s not bad considering the price of the trip. Highly recommend.”

Review of Alanya scuba diving with hotel transfer, two underwater sessions, lunch, equipment, beginner support, pricing, and practical tips.
“So the boat stopped after 3 minutes of leaving the harbor so the experience was nothing like expected already, we stayed on the same spot for 6-7hours shaking from the waves which caused nausea for many of us. The dives were way to crowded and lastet for slighty less than 20minutes each (officially communicated were 20 minutes by the instructors). On the dive it self we crowded around a rope that went like 5m deep and had to strictly watch the advisor. If you watch at a fish or a stone you get advised to watch the advisor. Since we didnt leave the harbor we only saw this one small…”
Explore Fethiye’s clear, warm waters with two guided scuba sessions, lunch, equipment, hotel transfers, and friendly instruction for all levels.
“It was a really nice day and very well organised. Our instructor was very professional and nothing was rushed. We went as a family of four. Me and my two children done the scuba dives, while my wife swam in the lovely clear sea bay. Nice lunch for the amount of money that the excursion cost. The only thing I would say and this isn’t a complaint just personal preference is the scuba dives go very quickly being 20 minutes each. I would probably prefer to have one longer dive.”
Review of Antalya’s Mediterranean scuba cruise, with two underwater sessions, lunch, equipment, transfers, costs, drawbacks, and booking advice.
“My dive experience was cut short, and rightly so, the exertion got a late start. The captain looking out for inexperienced divers and chose to stay way from crowded dive spots and turbulent waters. My advice: Get on a dive that departs the marina before 9:AM.”
