Turkey

Turkey has a coastline of more than 8,000 km and is surrounded by sea on three sides and, by the Black Sea in the north, the Mediterranean in the south and the Aegean Sea in the west. Turkey has become increasingly accessible to European holidaymakers and the diving industry has taken off with dive centres in many holiday resorts. For experienced divers wishing to experience a wider variety of sites, liveaboards and two-centre trips are viable options. Most of the diving in Turkey is conducted around the Mediterranean resorts of Bodrum, Marmaris, Fethiye, Oludeniz and Kas. Here you will find warm, clear waters and varied underwater scenery with tunnels, caverns and rocky pinnacles providing divers with plenty to explore. There are many wrecks along the Turkish coast, both recent and modern; many wreck sites are protected by law, although more are being opened up with time. It is also common to find remains of pottery and amphora. 

Turkey is an ideal destination for a family or for divers who have a non-diving partner, or for those who want to try diving for the first time. It is possible to combine diving with a normal holiday and package deals tend to be very reasonably priced. The diving is typical of the Mediterranean, so although very pleasant, the marine life will not be as abundant as in the Red Sea or the Caribbean.
