Your exciting diving adventure begins with a hotel pick-up from your accommodation in Alanya or the surrounding areas. Between 08:00 and 09:00, our comfortable, air-conditioned Mercedes Crafter vehicles will collect you directly from your hotel.
From Kargıcak to Konaklı, and everywhere in between, we’ll make sure you’re comfortably transported to Alanya Harbor, where your diving experience will begin.
Once you arrive at the harbor, you’ll board our spacious double-deck boat. As we set sail around 09:20, the journey to our dive sites will take approximately one hour. During this time, you’ll be able to enjoy the stunning coastal views of Alanya and the Mediterranean Sea.
Your instructor will provide a detailed briefing about the day’s program, covering diving techniques, safety protocols, and what to expect underwater. This is your chance to familiarize yourself with the equipment and dive procedures while soaking in the beautiful scenery.
Your first dive will take place around 11:00 at a depth of 3-5 meters for beginners or up to 12 meters for Open Water Diver students. Lasting about 20-25 minutes, this dive is designed to help you get comfortable with the equipment and practice essential diving skills in a controlled, safe environment.
Under the guidance of your experienced instructor, you’ll explore the rich underwater world of Alanya, encountering vibrant coral reefs, schools of fish, and perhaps even rare marine creatures like sea turtles or seals.
After the first dive, it’s time for a well-deserved break with a delicious buffet lunch served on board. Between 12:30 and 13:00, you’ll enjoy a variety of dishes, including pasta, salad, and chicken nuggets. Drinks are available for an additional cost.
The boat will remain stationary during lunch, giving you the chance to relax, sunbathe, or take a dip in the sea. If we’re near an island, guests will also have the opportunity to explore the island’s surroundings or enjoy a swim with snorkeling gear provided.
In the afternoon, around 14:00, we’ll head to our second dive site for a second dive at a depth of 10-15 meters (for Scuba Diver and Open Water Diver students). This dive lasts 20-30 minutes and offers a deeper exploration of the underwater world. You’ll have the chance to discover more fascinating natural formations like caves and reefs, and encounter a wider variety of Mediterranean fish. For those in the Advanced Open Water Diver (AOWD) course, your dive could go deeper, up to 30 meters, allowing for a more challenging and exciting experience.
Once the second dive is completed, we begin our return journey to Alanya Harbor. This peaceful boat ride takes about 45 minutes, giving you time to relax and reflect on your underwater adventures. If you’d like, you can review the professional underwater photos and videos taken during the dives. These photos are available for purchase, so you can take home memories of your incredible experience.
We’ll arrive back at the harbor around 17:00, where you’ll be transferred back to your hotel in the same comfortable vehicle. You can expect to arrive at your hotel between 17:30 and 18:00, bringing your unforgettable day of diving to a close.
