Introduction / Tour Overview

Begin your day with a hotel pickup from Side or nearby areas including Gündoğdu, Evrenseki, Çolaklı, Kumköy, Sorgun, and Titreyengöl. Whether you're an adventurous beginner or a certified diver, the SIDE DIVING TOUR WITH UNDERWATER MUSEUM EXPERIENCE offers a truly unique and safe introduction to Mediterranean diving.

After a comfortable transfer, you’ll arrive at a professional diving center where licensed instructors will provide a detailed safety briefing. All equipment is provided, and your gear will be fitted for comfort and performance.

From here, your journey continues by boat toward the iconic SIDE UNDERWATER MUSEUM, Europe’s first underwater sculpture park. Submerged just off the coast, this site features dozens of impressive statues inspired by Turkish mythology, local history, and marine life — all designed to serve as artificial reefs. The museum is home to colorful fish, sea urchins, coral formations, and on lucky days, even sea turtles or rays.

Each diver enjoys one guided dive session tailored to their experience level. Beginners are carefully assisted throughout the dive, while certified divers can explore deeper or longer depending on conditions. For guests not participating in diving, the boat offers shaded areas, sunbathing zones, and plenty of space to swim or snorkel in the clear water.

This half-day experience blends underwater discovery, marine education, and coastal relaxation — making it perfect for couples, solo travelers, families with teens, or anyone curious about the world beneath the surface.
