Sailing in Fethiye waters is a wonderful experience, taking you to secluded coves and bays with stunning scenery all around you. But beneath the waves is another equally enchanting world full of amazing rock formations, caves, canyons, walls, and drop-offs. The remains of ancient ships and other artifacts can also be seen. The town of Fethiye is a great place to arrange a guided scuba diving excursion. Dive sites for every level are available and easy to get to on a fast dive boat.
Afkule 1 is an advanced dive sight taking you down to 80 feet to a cave and a cavern well worth seeing. Afkule 2 is also for advanced divers and goes to depths of 93 feet. This is a great drop-off dive that also features a small cave teeming with shrimp. For beginner through advanced divers, Tarzan Bay is an option. It’s both easy and beautiful, with sundry remains of ancient pottery jars (amphora) visible on the seafloor. Intermediate to advanced divers with a passion for the past may well find Amphora Bay intriguing, which got its name from the large number of Roman pottery jars (circa. 300 B.C.) on the bottom. The slope drops steeply. Rock formations are home to a wide variety of marine creatures, including octopuses, moray eels, and groupers.
