You step off the pier, salt on your lips and a warm Mediterranean breeze nudging the boat out of Marmaris harbor. Guides check cylinders and point toward low, rocky headlands; the sea looks calm but alive, daring you to look beneath its mirror. Instruction takes place on deck—equipment fitted, signals rehearsed—before the group suits up for two shallow, beginner-friendly dives in bays sheltered by pine-lined shores.

Take seasickness meds early
If you get queasy on open water, take motion-sickness medication or acupressure bands at least an hour before departure.
Bring reef-safe sunscreen
Use mineral-based sunscreen to protect your skin and the underwater Posidonia meadows; apply before boarding and again after dives.
Hydrate and eat lightly
Drink water before boarding and choose a light meal pre-dive—heavy food can increase nausea, but the boat lunch will keep you fueled.
Carry ID and certification if you have it
Bring photo ID and any diving certification cards; beginners should inform guides about medical conditions during booking.
Swimsuit and quick-dry towel
