Too much waiting and too little diving
I can describe it primarily as a swimming experience not a diving one. The landscape and swimming locations are very beautiful. If your main goal is not diving then it will probably be a good choice. Now to things that were organized poorly: 1. Diving itself lasted less than 10 min in total. Most of the time you just wait on a boat or swim. Tourist groups are too large and waiting time is hard to handle. Sea bottom and aquatic life at diving places are boring and scarce, respectively, and not worth your time. 2. Lunch was small and I was pretty hungry on the way back 3. Crew poorly speaks English and some communication problems are unavoidable 4. People smoke everywhere. There are no dedicated places for this, so it can be problematic for some people 5. No lockers to store your personal belongings. One of the guys I spoke with during this trip said that they were robbed once. 6. Small children: many people go to the tour with very small kids. And they scream constantly. To sum up, I wouldn't recommend this tour. If you'd like to experice a real and more personalized diving experience find a better option
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We appreciate both your positive comments about the beautiful swimming locations and your constructive suggestions. Our diving tour is designed specifically for beginners and first-time divers. For safety reasons, each participant dives individually with a certified instructor, which means guests spend time relaxing, swimming, or enjoying the boat while waiting for their turn. The underwater time is intentionally kept within beginner safety guidelines. We’re sorry that the lunch portion, communication with some crew members, and the onboard smoking affected your experience. Your comments have been shared with our team so we can continue improving our service. Regarding personal belongings, while theft is extremely rare and we have not received reports of such incidents on our tours, we always recommend that guests keep valuables with them or avoid bringing unnecessary valuables on board. We understand that the family-friendly atmosphere, including the presence of children, may not suit every traveler. For guests looking for longer dives, smaller groups, and a more advanced diving experience, we recommend choosing a tour specifically designed for certified or experienced divers. Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you all the best on your future travels.

Fantastic first diving experience
We joined this diving tour as a couple during our stay in Antalya and it was one of the most exciting activities of our holiday. The day started with a hotel pickup and everything was well arranged from the beginning. On the boat the instructors explained the basics and safety rules very clearly, which made us feel comfortable even though it was our first time trying scuba diving. After arriving at the diving spot we went underwater with the instructors and it was an incredible feeling to see the fish and the underwater landscape of the Mediterranean. Between the dives we had time to relax on the boat and enjoy lunch while taking in the beautiful sea views. The instructors were friendly, patient and very professional throughout the whole experience. Overall it was a great day on the water and a wonderful introduction to scuba diving. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Antalya who wants to try diving for the first time.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re happy to hear that you enjoyed your first scuba diving experience in Antalya. We hope to welcome you again on another adventure!

First dive – an amazing experience!
I had never tried diving before, but the instructors explained everything clearly and calmly. All the equipment was provided, and I felt safe throughout. We did two dives, saw lots of fish, the sea floor, and even had some underwater photos taken. Huge thanks to the team for their professionalism and friendly approach! Highly recommended if you're trying scuba for the first time.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your feedback have a great time.

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Antalya Scuba Diving for Beginners with Lunch and Transfers: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Antalya.
How much does Antalya Scuba Diving for Beginners with Lunch and Transfers cost?
+
Prices start at $37 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Antalya usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Antalya Scuba Diving for Beginners with Lunch and Transfers take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Antalya is not rushed.
Is Antalya Scuba Diving for Beginners with Lunch and Transfers worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Antalya, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Antalya Scuba Diving for Beginners with Lunch and Transfers?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Antalya Scuba Diving for Beginners with Lunch and Transfers suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Antalya Scuba Diving for Beginners with Lunch and Transfers?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Antalya can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Antalya and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Antalya Scuba Diving for Beginners with Lunch and Transfers start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Antalya within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Antalya?
+
On Outty we rank every Antalya experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Perge, Aspendos, Side and Waterfall Full Day Tour, Antalya: Perge, Aspendos, Side & Manavgat Waterfalls Tour, Antalya Excursion to Perge, Aspendos, side, Manavgat waterfall. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Antalya?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Antalya?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
