Best scuba experience in Turkey

David_S, May 2026

Been on many scuba diving trips in turkey but this one by silver diving centre waa easily the best I’ve ever been on. An amazing boat and professional staff with very good equipment. So i could recommend 100% for you to book & go on this trip. See you again soon.

Amazing

This trip was amazing, we had a great day and the scuba driving was a unreal experience! The staff were so funny and kind We had a great day And would do it again

Diving : excellent with great guides and good equipment. Everything in between was lacking.

Pick up prompt at the advised time - 0750 Walk into the old town ~ 15 mins Boarded a large boat - 3 decks - one for diving gear, on with tables and chairs and one for sun bathing. Good Wifi available on-board for €1 Filled out forms before departure while more and more people got on board. A lot of hanging around - boarded boat at 0850, only left 1 hour 25mins later at 1015 Experienced divers went first. Dive was well structured. Very poor visibility after ~15m - 2m max. Did a wreck dive then the museum which was interesting. Felt in good hands with instructor. Equipment provided in good condition. Water very warm for first 10-12m then get noticeably cooler. They provided a 5mm shortie wetsuit which was perfect. A lot of waiting around while the rest of the passengers did their dives - most of them their first dive. For beginners, very short dive, down ~ 6m for 5-10mins for a quick photo then up again. So around 3 hours between each dive. On boat, playing rather loud dance/trance music. Lunch served at 1300 - pasta with chicken stew and salad with bread. Portions on the small size. Soft drinks available to buy. After lunch seemed rather disorganised as some passengers got seasick and so the staff elected to take them back to the harbour. Think they saw this as an opportunity to make a quick buck as they announced to the whole shop that anyone who wanted to go back there and then could for the price of €5. Second dive after lunch - museum pieces lasting around 40mins - rather good fun! Shallower dive with max depth of 9m. Much better visibility. All the new divers did their second dive then there was around about 1 hour of “free time” where not much was happening. The boat left the dive site at 1610 and docked at the harbour at 1645. 15min walk back to the bus and then transfer back to the hotel. I got dropped back at 1750. So much for a 5h trip…more like 10hrs!
