A low-angled sun cuts silver across Marmaris Bay as the boat slips out of the town’s wide natural harbor. You feel the boat’s wake underfoot, salty air pushing at your face, and the water beyond the hull already daring you to drop below. The first dive site lies a short run from shore; instructors walk through hand signals, kit checks, and weight checks before the group slips beneath a clean, blue surface.
