The boat slips away from Kiriş bay and the shoreline recedes into a bright ribbon of sand and citrus trees. Salt air stings your lips and the instructor runs through a calm, clear briefing — hand signals, weight checks, and the dive plan. When you step off the ladder into Mediterranean blue, the world narrows to the hiss of your regulator and the slow, curious turns of the fish below.

The boat slips away from Kiriş bay and the shoreline recedes into a bright ribbon of sand and citrus trees.

When you step off the ladder into Mediterranean blue, the world narrows to the hiss of your regulator and the slow, curious turns of the fish below.
This stretch of coast sits on the Lycian shore, where ancient trade routes met craggy limestone reefs and sun‑bleached ruins. The seafloor here is a mix of rocky outcrops and sand pockets, carved by Pleistocene sea-level changes and wave action. Local fishing villages and the nearby ruins of Phaselis speak to a history of maritime commerce that continues in small‑boat tourism today.
Practically, the tour runs about six hours: an hour (or more) roundtrip transfer from Antalya or Kemer, boat time, two guided shallow dives (about 20 minutes each) to roughly 5–7 meters for novices, and a lunch on board. Equipment and a basic diving certificate at tour’s end are included. Instructors tailor depth for experienced divers. Expect calm summer seas but be ready for chop on shoulder seasons.
Bring swimwear, a towel, reef‑safe sunscreen, and seasickness medication if you’re prone to motion sickness. Avoid alcohol beforehand, disclose medical issues (pregnancy, spinal or heart conditions are contraindications), and don’t plan air travel within 24 hours after diving. The experience is beginner‑focused, tactile, and easily accessible — a compact way to meet the Mediterranean under the surface.
