A warm wind moves the surface into glassy ripples and the lagoon’s turquoise edge seems to breathe as you step from the sand. The instructor checks your gear on the beach, then you glide out by boat to a sheltered bay where the sea calms and visibility often stretches meters beneath the surface. The water here—protected by the shallow sandbar of Ölüdeniz—welcomes new divers with gentle slopes, patches of seagrass and small rocky outcrops full of fish.
