Frequently asked
- Do I need to be a certified diver?
- No — Discover Scuba intro dives for non-certified divers run from 0 to 12 m with a PADI instructor in shallow protected sites. Certified divers (Open Water and above) join standard two-tank dive days at 18–30 m.
- Where do you dive in Kalkan and Kaş?
- Kaş is the dive capital of Turkey: Big Reef, Canyon, Pellet Wreck, Flying Fish Reef, Sakarya Wreck and a Hawker Hurricane WW2 plane wreck. Visibility is typically 25–40 m June–October.
- Are wetsuit and gear included?
- Yes — full equipment (BCD, regulator, mask, fins, 5 mm wetsuit, weights and tanks) is included for both intro and certified divers. Dive computers can be rented for an extra fee.
- Is there an age and health limit?
- Minimum age 10 (PADI Bubblemaker for ages 8–10 on request). A medical questionnaire must be signed before diving — significant heart, lung or ear conditions need a doctor's clearance.
- Can my non-diving partner come along?
- Yes — the boat takes snorkellers at a reduced fee. Snorkelling kit, lunch and the same swim stops are included. Just tell us at booking how many divers and snorkellers.
ToursJeep Safari Saklıkent
A full-day Saklıkent gorge tour from Kalkan that swaps the coast for the Taurus mountains. Your English-speaking guide leads a small, family-friendly group by off-road jeep into the cool, rushing waters of Türkiye's deepest canyon, then on to the hilltop ruins of ancient Tlos. Lunch of fresh-grilled trout is served on wooden platforms above the river — an unhurried, photo-rich day trip from Kalkan harbour.
ToursMeis Island Tour
A relaxed day trip from Kalkan harbour to the Greek island of Meis (Kastellorizo) — the easiest hop from Türkiye to the Dodecanese. After a 25-minute crossing your English-speaking guide points out the pastel harbour, the Blue Cave sea grotto and quiet tavernas perfect for a long lunch. A full-day, family-friendly small-group tour; passport is essential, and the Greek island stamp is a souvenir in itself.
ToursXanthos River Canoe Tour
A gentle half-day canoe trip from Kalkan down the slow, willow-shaded Xanthos river, ending at the wide sands of Patara beach. Suited to first-timers and families, the route is led by an English-speaking guide in a small group and broken up by a generous village lunch served at a riverside table. A green, cooling counterpoint to the coast — easily the most refreshing day trip from Kalkan in summer.
