Full description

Scuba diving in Marmaris is perfect if you want to try diving with no training or experience. The waters around Marmaris and İçmeler have dozens of certified dive sites, and each day the captain picks the best spot for the sea conditions.

Underwater you'll spot shipwreck remains, amphorae and other traces of the past, plus plenty of colourful fish. The first dive is at around 7-8 metres. The second goes a little deeper, to 8-10 metres, where the seabed gets more interesting. An instructor stays close to the group the whole time, leading the descent and keeping everyone safe.

It's not all about diving, either. On board you can sunbathe on the upper deck, listen to music, or grab a snorkel mask and watch the divers from the surface if you'd rather not go down with a tank. That makes it a great choice for friends and family coming along with a diver too.

Great experience with Barracuda Dive School in Marmaris! We did two 20-minute dives with instructor Engin. The underwater life isn’t the richest, but the diving spots and the surrounding bays are really beautiful. The group was fun, the instructors were friendly and professional, and the equipment was in decent condition. Overall a nice and relaxed day on the water.

We set off from Icmeler on the Barakuda boat. We don't know English well, but the head instructor speaks a little Russian and accompanied us the whole time. I really liked it! For the first time the process itself is interesting! Thanks

Отправлялись с Ичмелера на корабле Баракуда. Английский знаем плохо, но главный инструктор немного говорит по русски и все время нас сопровождал. Мне очень понравилось! Для первого раза интерес сам процес! Спасибо

We had an incredible day, all of the staff were really friendly and helpful. The divers who went in with us were extremely reassuring and patient even when myself and my daughter had a wobble! She is autistic and very sensitive and they put her at ease straightaway. It’s a very memorable day. Hope to go back one day
