Review · ANTALYA SCUBA DIVING
Antalya/ Belek Scuba Diving Tour With 2 Time Dive & Lunch
Antalya’s clear Mediterranean water is the main event, but this trip gives you more than a quick look below the surface. You get two guided sessions at different depths, with time aboard a spacious boat between them to swim, sunbathe, or simply rest.
I like the gentle first session, which takes beginners to just 3 to 5 meters, and the chance to go farther down later, to 10 to 15 meters. Lunch is served aboard, and the listed $39 price includes equipment, insurance, and hotel transfers, useful extras that can make a day out simpler to plan.
One point to weigh: the two sessions last about 20 to 30 minutes each, so the day includes plenty of time on the boat as well as time in the water. In winter, the usual two-session schedule changes to one longer session.
- First session: A calm introduction at 3 to 5 meters, with instructor guidance.
- Second session: A later outing to 10 to 15 meters, usually lasting 20 to 30 minutes.
- Time between sessions: You can swim or sunbathe aboard while other groups take their turn.
- Included in the price: Equipment, lunch, hotel pickup and drop-off, a live guide, and insurance.
- Languages: Instructors speak English, German, and Russian.
- Worth knowing: Drinks, personal expenses, and photos or videos are not included.
Starting gently in Antalya’s clear water

The day is built around a simple progression. If you are new to scuba, you begin with a guided session at a depth of 3 to 5 meters, rather than being sent straight into deeper water. The stated aim is a comfortable introduction, with instructors watching over a small group and offering individual guidance.
That shallow start matters. A first underwater outing can feel unfamiliar, even if you are excited about it. One person who rated the experience highly described feeling scared at first, then praised the boat team as professional and reassuring. That is a useful detail for nervous beginners: you can expect support from the staff, but you should still be comfortable communicating if you feel uneasy.
The tour is presented as suitable for both beginners and people with previous experience. The first session is specifically pitched as an introduction, while the later one goes farther down. If you already have experience, the depths listed here are still a useful guide to what this trip offers: the second outing reaches 10 to 15 meters, not an all-day technical program.
Your time below the surface is about 20 to 30 minutes per session. That is enough for a focused look at the marine life and surroundings, but it is not a long expedition. The appeal is the contrast between a short first outing and a deeper second one, with a break in between.
A spacious boat makes the pause part of the day

The boat is more than transport between sessions. There is room to get ready, unwind, and wait while other groups take their turn. You can swim or sunbathe aboard during that interval, so the time between outings need not feel like dead time.
The arrangement also means the day is not one continuous activity. You should expect a group schedule, with people taking turns in the water. If you prefer a tightly packed itinerary, the waiting may feel slow. If you like a relaxed day on the sea, with chances to rest between active periods, the pace may suit you.
Bring a towel, beachwear, and a change of clothes. The tour includes diving equipment, including a suit, but you will want your own dry items for after the water. Drinks are not included, so plan for that separately. Photos and videos also cost extra, which is worth remembering if you want a record of your time below the surface.

Lunch aboard, then a deeper second outing

Lunch comes after the morning session and is served aboard. It gives you a chance to sit down, eat, and recover before the second outing. The meal is included, while beverages are not. The description calls it delicious, but specific dishes and drink options are not provided, so it is best not to plan around a particular menu.
After lunch, the second session takes you to a stated depth of 10 to 15 meters. This is the more ambitious part of the day, offering a different perspective from the shallow introduction. Each outing is guided, and the tour is intended to keep groups small.
The deeper session is not simply a repeat of the first. The change in depth gives the day a clear rhythm: first get comfortable in shallow water, then decide how you feel about going farther. If you are uncertain, tell the instructor before the second session. The information provided does not specify whether you can skip it or how that would affect the price, so do not assume either way.
Both sessions are described as lasting around 20 to 30 minutes. Your exact time in the water may depend on the group schedule, but the eight-hour total includes the boat time, meal, and transfers as well as the underwater portions. Think of it as a full-day outing with two short, guided sessions rather than eight hours spent underwater.
What the $39 price covers

At $39 per person, the listed price includes several items that can add up if booked separately: hotel pickup and drop-off, equipment, lunch, full insurance, a live guide, and two sessions. For someone who wants to try scuba without arranging gear or transport independently, that is a practical bundle.
The price does not cover drinks, personal expenses, or photos and videos. Those exclusions are modest, but they matter if you are budgeting closely or want souvenir footage. Since no photo price is provided, ask the operator what is available before you decide to buy anything.
The overall rating is 4.2 out of 5 from 11 reviews, a positive but relatively small sample. The clearest praise available is for the boat team’s professionalism and the support that helped one nervous participant feel more at ease. That speaks to the human side of the trip, especially for a first-timer, but it is not a guarantee that every group or day will feel exactly the same.
Hotel pickup and the practical details

Hotel pickup and drop-off are included. After booking, the operator will contact you with your pickup time. Be ready at the hotel’s outer door 10 minutes before the time provided. The overall outing lasts about eight hours, though the available start times vary, so check the schedule for your date.
Instruction is offered in English, German, and Russian. If you need a particular language, confirm that it is available for your departure rather than assuming every trip has all three instructors on hand.
The activity is not suitable for children under 13, pregnant women, or people with respiratory issues. If you have a health concern not covered by those restrictions, ask the operator or a medical professional before booking. The trip includes full insurance, but that does not replace checking whether the activity is right for your own health and comfort.
In winter, the usual format changes: instead of two separate sessions, you take one session that lasts longer than normal. If the two-part schedule is a key reason for booking, check that the date you want falls outside the winter arrangement.

Who will enjoy this boat trip

This is a sensible choice if you are curious about scuba but do not want to commit to a full training course. The shallow first session offers a measured start, and the guided format gives beginners a person to follow and ask for help. The later outing adds a little more depth without turning the day into an advanced technical program.
It also suits you if you want a sea outing that mixes activity with downtime. You can spend time in the water, have lunch, then relax or swim aboard while groups rotate. Couples or friends with different comfort levels may appreciate that slower structure, though each person should be honest with the instructor about how they feel.
It is less suited to anyone hoping for hours underwater, a private boat, or included photo and video keepsakes. The group format and waiting periods are part of the experience, and beverages are extra. If you are prone to feeling impatient when an activity runs on a shared schedule, keep that in mind.
Should you book it?

Book this trip if you want a low-cost, guided introduction to Antalya’s underwater environment, and value having transfers, gear, lunch, and insurance bundled into one price. The strongest practical draws are the shallow first session, the later outing to greater depth, and a boat with room to rest between turns.
Skip it if you want a long underwater excursion, need a fully private schedule, or are uncomfortable with the stated restrictions. For a first-timer who feels nervous but is willing to try, the staged format and attentive team make this a reasonable option. Just go in expecting a full day on the boat, not eight hours in the water.
