Scuba Diving in Belek

Yes, Türkiye is one of the most popular diving destinations in the Mediterranean. Regions like Antalya, Belek, Kemer offer daily diving tours with professional instructors, clear waters, and safe conditions for both beginners and certified divers.

No, scuba diving is not recommended during pregnancy. Medical experts advise against diving while pregnant because of the risks related to pressure changes, oxygen supply, and potential stress on the baby. Pregnant guests can still join the boat trip, swim, or snorkel safely.

First-time divers are welcome. Daily tours include a full safety briefing, beginner-level training, and guided dives at shallow depths (6–8 meters). Professional instructors accompany you underwater to ensure safety and comfort.

Our diving school in Belek accept children from 10–12 years old for beginner dives. For younger children, snorkeling is offered as a safer alternative. Age rules can vary depending on the diving center’s policies and insurance requirements.

Snorkeling: Swimming on the surface with a mask, snorkel, and fins. Easy, no training required.
Diving (scuba diving): Breathing underwater using special equipment (tank, regulator, weights). Requires training, supervision, and safety rules.
In short, snorkeling is surface-level fun, while diving lets you explore the underwater world in depth.

The 1/3 rule is a gas management guideline: Use 1/3 of your air supply for going out, 1/3 for coming back, and keep 1/3 as a reserve for emergencies. This ensures you never run out of air, even if something unexpected happens.

The golden rule is: “Never hold your breath while scuba diving.” Always breathe normally and continuously. Holding your breath can cause lung injuries due to pressure changes.

The safety stop: divers pause for 3 minutes at 5 meters depth at the end of the dive. This helps nitrogen safely leave the body and reduces the risk of decompression sickness.

Do not fly or go to high altitude for at least 12–24 hours.
Avoid heavy exercise, alcohol, or hot tubs right after diving.
Do not dive again if you feel unwell (headache, fatigue, joint pain).

Do not drink alcohol or use drugs before diving.
Avoid heavy meals right before the dive.
Do not dive if you are sick, congested, or have ear/sinus problems.
