Scuba Diving in Kaş: Why It's The Best in Turkey

Kaş is the undisputed diving capital of Turkey. With visibility often exceeding 30 meters, it's like diving in an aquarium.

Top Dive Spots

  • The Canyon: A dramatic dive between two sheer walls. It features a tunnel and a nearby cotton freighter wreck.
  • Dakota Plane Wreck: A C-47 military transport plane sunk on purpose to create an artificial reef. It's ghostly and beautiful.
  • Neptune Reef: Great for all levels. You'll see ancient amphorae scattered on the seabed and, if you're lucky, Caretta Caretta turtles.

Whether you are a complete beginner trying a "Discovery Dive" or a pro looking for deep wrecks, Kaş has over 30 dive sites to explore.
