Amateur divers experience
Pickup sucks, they should pickup from port but we were able to find our driver since they changed the pick-up location on us at the last min... Once in the van everything was great. The boat and crew rocked! They were helpful and the dives were safe and very enjoyable. Not a great dive for experienced divers looking for exotic fish but great for first timers.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear that despite the pickup situation, you enjoyed the rest of your day. It’s great that the boat, crew, and diving experience met your expectations. The tour is designed to provide a safe and enjoyable experience, especially for those looking to try diving in a relaxed environment.

Best Scuba Diving in Marmaris!!!
The crew were so friendly and made us feel completely at ease before our dive. Information was detailed! The scuba diving itself was amazing, we saw some beautiful sights. The photos were fab too. The included lunch was yummy, and we had fun swimming with flippers whilst we waited for our turn to scuba.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're absolutely delighted to hear that you had such a great experience and enjoyed the tour. Your kind words mean a lot to our team, and we hope to welcome you back again very soon!

This was really really fun. I am most definitely not a scuba professional and I don't think I'll ever be 🤣. This was just a great experience and the staff were really attentive. The man who was in charge said to call him "engine". He was very nice, spoke very clearly and was on hand should you need anything. In all fairness there was a lot of staff so you you could call to anyone. I did feel a little confused at the start because the was no immediate introduction about an itinerary but when engine came up before our first dive to explain the expectations and it was good from there. There is a bit of waiting around before you get your chance to scuba but I just used that time to swim in the sea and sunbathe. I would recommend bringing your own googles because the water is so clear you can have a look when your doing your own swimming. At the first dive they advise not to take your own photos. This was actually good because you do need that time to understand what to do and how to do it. They take photos on the first dive and I was thinking I might not buy them. We were given lunch. It was a decent sized sandwich with sandwich meat, cheese and tomato. Obviously being your own stuff if you want in addition as I don't think they mind. The upper floor will get roasting!! And the sunbeds are so hot so bring the towels and hide your flip flops in the shade! Second dive you go deeper. I was only in for about 10 mins and then I wanted to go up lol. I did bring my camera with me that time but I was confident doing the scuba and trying to take photos so my pictures came out rubbish lol. If you've never done a scuba trip I would recommend this as a good experience and a bit of fun. I chatted to the a guy next to me , who had also come on his own, and both of us were not fussed on the pictures. But we kinda convinced ourselves to do it for the laugh and when I saw the quality of the photos and how Sharp they were I went and got mine! You do get every photo of you and I little video. I think it was about 20-30 quid. I can't remember because I paid in lira but you get loads of pics! I'd genuinely recommend this as a scuba taster session. You can beat the open sea and just the beauty of being out on the boat! Thanks to all the staff on the boat as I did feel safe and I thoroughly enjoyed!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Marmaris / Icmeler : Scuba Diving with Lunch and Transfer: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Marmaris.
How much does Marmaris / Icmeler : Scuba Diving with Lunch and Transfer cost?
+
Prices start at $23 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Marmaris usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Marmaris / Icmeler : Scuba Diving with Lunch and Transfer take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Marmaris is not rushed.
Is Marmaris / Icmeler : Scuba Diving with Lunch and Transfer worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Marmaris, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Marmaris / Icmeler : Scuba Diving with Lunch and Transfer?
+
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 Marmaris / Icmeler : Scuba Diving with Lunch and Transfer suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Marmaris / Icmeler : Scuba Diving with Lunch and Transfer?
+
Around 4 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 Marmaris 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 Marmaris and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Marmaris / Icmeler : Scuba Diving with Lunch and Transfer 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 Marmaris 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 Marmaris?
+
On Outty we rank every Marmaris experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full-Day Guided Ephesus Tour From Marmaris with Transfers and Lunch, Full Day Turtle Beach Tour With Lake and Mud Baths From Marmaris, From Marmaris: Pamukkale Hot Springs and Ancient City Tour. 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 Marmaris?
+
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 Marmaris?
+
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.
