There are many colorful fish that follow you through the water including Rainbow Wrasse, baby Groupers, Soldier Fish, Sea Bream, Parrot Fish, and occasionally the friendly Olly the Octopus. In the area there are Amphoras that date back to the Roman Empire. This area is sheltered from winds and currents and this makes it a very safe place to dive and snorkel. The dive starts from a pebble beach slowly descending to 3 meters and then on down to 5 meters to initiate the beginners. This dive site is perfect for beginners and discover scuba divers. This location has much to see underwater with fish, sponges, and plants of varying beautiful colors.īeginners Bay is located just past Ekincik Bay about 45 minutes away from Dalyan on the EuroDive boat. Out past the shallower waters of the Bay is a huge drop-off of about 60 meters where one gets the sensation of flying. This dive site is good for beginners as well as qualified divers because of it's spectacular location and ease of access from the beach. In this Bay are many fish and other underwater life living around the strangely shaped rocks that have been created by the movement of the sea. The first impression is the vibrant color of the aquamarine Bay, the whiteness of the sand, and the rugged rocks lining the beach.
Turning left when leaving the river and meeting the sea, we make our way towards Bozburun. It is also home to thousands of native fish. The wreck rests at an angle starting at 30 meters and rising to 7 meters and is the perfect site for the second dive of "Discover Scuba" or for qualified divers who don't want to go too deep. It was approximately 40 meters long and sank 12 years ago while on its way from Istanbul to Ekincik Bay when it hit the top of an underwater mountain that sits 1 meter under the sea with its pinnacle base at a depth of about 45 meters. The wreck is called Istanbul Kurt meaning Istanbul Wolf. Also you will see sponges of all colours, tube worms, sea cucumbers, triton shells and occasionally large octopus and lobster. When leaving the cave we dive down 20-30 mtrs where there is large amphores covered rock. Here the light is spectacular as it streams from above and is filtered onto the water creating a disco light effcet.
The second chamber that leads from thr first is smaller and only one diver can enter at a time, but once inside there is a large room that will accommodate 5 divers together. The first contains and large air buble and is suitable for the newly qualified. The Cave entrance is at a depth of 8 mtrs - a large opening that leads into two chambers. Disco Cave is situated on the way to Ekincik bay and is suitable for newly qualified and exprience divers.
