With vibrant coral reefs, tropical fish and exotic locales to explore, Turkey is a top spot to try scuba diving for the first time. Wriggle into a wet suit and get ready for a taster of a whole new underwater world. This excellent activity offers two dives either side of lunch, which is included as is all equipment.

First we'll whisk you off to meet a top-rated diving crew, help you get to grips with the basic skills. Then once you feel comfortable, you'll head out by boat to a secluded bay for your first, fun dive. Descend into the warm waters with an experienced instructor by your side. As you waft through the waters, keep a lookout for grouper, octopus, damselfish and more.

Then after lunch back on-board, you'll enjoy a second afternoon dive – giving you another chance to brush up your skills and see even more sea life.

Equipment was faulty, and even after reporting it, it was used again on the second dive. Air-lines were leaking, gauges were unreadable. One diver was seen using the emergency line as the main regulator was not working properly. Simply not good enough regarding H&S and good diving standards. Beginners course and you not even shown how to retrieve your regulator, should it become dislodged.

There was a huge amount of waiting about. Group was too large and a little disorganised. People constantly smoking on the boat made for an unpleasant environment. But staff were friendly and hard working and scuba was good. Not much to see but divers were patient and helpful.

Loved the scuba diving instructors great dis 2 dives. Understood these guys need to make money but the whole first dive is a glorified photo shoot I would rather have an option where pay more and not do that or a package where get some photos included. Always feels a bit pushy with the upwell stuff and rather just pay upfront.

Had a very good day out. Would most definitely do it again. Very informative staff and cannot believe the price. Would have paid more.

I absolutely loved this - fantastic value for money, and it was a sunny day. Only thing I'd say is definitely don't forget to bring cash like I did. The tour guides are very nice but if you only have a card to pay for photos, you'll have to wait until you get to shore to pay which is a tad awkward. Also bring *lots* of bottled water.

The only downside was the pickup the bus was 20 mins late and the majority of the seats never had seat belts aside from that it was an incredible experience
