SCUBA DIVING
The coast around Fethiye and Gocek, with its wide range of plant and animal life, is very suitable for diving.  The travel agencies that run tours and the companies teaching diving are mostly located in the Fethiye port area.  The boats normally leave around 09:00-10:00 am, returning at around 17:00 pm.  On average the sites dived upon are about one hour from the port.  While you are sailing to your destination for the day, preliminary information about the diving is given, with the company of experienced divers diving is done at the depth of 3 metres, this takes approximately 20 minutes.  After a lunch break there is a second dive, at this point you go as deep as 5 metres and stay underwater for 20 minutes.  After the diving is finished you are given a certificate.  For experienced divers the depth limit is 30 metres and the duration of stay underwater is 45 minutes, with two dives a day.
Some of the diving areas are as follows:

Dalyan Cove
The cove is like a natural pool and is very suitable for those trying diving for the first time, the depth starts at one meter near the shore and goes down to ten metres.  It is possible to see octopus, black bream, sponges and shellfish.

Afkule Cave
This cave is loved by experienced divers, it is like a large carved hole and the interior surface is covered with sponges and coral.  It is at 40 metres and its width is ten metres, you can come across all types of Mediterranean fish here.  Barakuda Reef: This reef is a home for barracudas and starts at a depth of 14 metres and goes down to 45 metres.

Sariyarlar
This is an ideal diving point both for learners and the experienced diver.  The underwater flora and fauna is extraordinary rich, here you can come across seahorses that you cannot find in other places.  The depth starts shallow and goes down to 30 metres.
