The area between Lara and Konyaalti Beaches is the easiest one, especially if you are a beginner. There are rocky cliffs that are very comfortable and allow diving up to 25 meters deep. There is no strong current, and this area has a beautiful underwater life. You can also try diving near Taşlık burnu. In the past, the cargo ship named Gelidoniya, which was built in the 13th century, sank there after crashing into rocks.
Antalya - Miracle Resort If you dive approximately 1 kilometer away from the city’s pierce, you can see another sunken ship, Saint Didier. During the Second World War, this ship delivered equipment and ammo and supplies for battles in the desert. However, in order to dive there, you need to get a special permission from the city’s authorities. The region not far from a small island named Sichang is also suitable for diving. There is an underwater cave, but yachts and strong current make it not simple to dive there. On the other hand, many may find it even more interesting that way.
