SCUBA DIVING IN TURKEY
|
| |
Diving in Turkey is quickly becoming a much sought
after activity for travelers the world over. Turkey offers a
multitude of dive destinations with a variety of underwater
attractions.
Explore and experience the phenomena of the 'cold cave'. So named
because, regardless of the surface temperature of the ocean waters,
which are generally around 30 degrees C, or 86 degrees F, this cave
maintains an internal water temperature of 14 degree C, or 57
degrees F.
Or maybe you'd like to dive the Italian three-propeller plane that
crashed during WWII and now lies from head to tail at a depth of 40
to 60 meters or 131 - 197 feet beneath the ocean's surface.
Maybe diving the ruins of ancient Lycian civilizations is more to
your liking, in which case there are several sites that offer
excursions to rock tombs and ruins of the ancient city Antiphellos.

Also offered are a number of dive destinations abundant with marine
life, beautiful reef dives, shipwrecks and cave dives for divers of
all experience levels. Dive amidst schools of Mediterranean
Barracuda, Parrotfish, Moray Eels, Octopus or Amberjack and on
occasion you may even come across Monk Seals and Dolphins.
Along the Turkish coast, you will find many places offering PADI
Dive Certification for all experience levels. Charters leave daily
for dive excursions from one to several days in length, offering not
only an unforgettable experience for the certified diver but also
for those seeking to just snorkel and sunbathe on deck of the
chartered boat or escape to one of the many shady areas of the
vessel.
Turkey may very well be the only place left on earth where you can
still charter a 'Gulet' for your daily dive excursions. Gulets are
traditional Turkish Yachts with modern amenities of a design that
has remained unchanged for centuries.
