My friend and I had our first vacation in Kemer and it was very cool! I really like active recreation and trying new things. And only on the last day we decided to go diving. (Oh, if we had known that it would bring us so many incredible emotions, we would have been happy to go earlier and would not have done it all at once!)
I would like to express my gratitude to the whole team for their good and organized work. And special thanks to the senior instructor and just the soul of the company Kamran. He gave a very detailed briefing that we, as beginners, had no questions left. Kamran charges everyone on the ship with its positive energy. It is clear that a person loves his job, and this is rarely seen in Turkey.
The ship has everything you need: free lunch, snacks and drinks (for an additional fee), two toilets, a first aid kit, vests and good music. The upper deck is covered with a special awning from the scorching sun. For sun and tanning enthusiasts like us, there is a place at the front of the ship. With the permission of the instructor and the captain, we jumped from the second floor into the sea - it's like an additional entertainment while you're waiting for your turn to dive.
In general, it's not just diving (like diving twice and that's it). + (plus) to dive, you get new impressions, a boat trip along the Mediterranean Sea, you will see beautiful mountain landscapes, the underwater world, swim in the open sea in clear and transparent water, meet new people and all this together with a friendly team = a wonderful vacation in the treasury of your memories!🤩
We were diving for the first time and thanks to Octopus Diving we were completely delighted! When you dive in, you completely forget all the worries and problems. When you are
underwater, you only think about how to breathe properly))) and the eyes run away and can't get enough of the underwater beauty. (It feels like you're watching a movie with 10D effects!) I note that the instructor was always there) It is difficult to convey the full range of our emotions in words, I believe that everyone should feel it on their own! We definitely recommend it to everyone!🔥 This team knows their job💪🏻
Padi AOWD. I dived in Turkey for the first time, 1 day 2 dives. $70 if certified. For beginners, about $ 50 (it's better to clarify). Transfer from the hotel (hotels in villages in the Kemer area) to the marina and back
20 dollars. The price includes equipment rental (important: you need to clarify about dive computers, perhaps they do not give them out in principle, only the guide has a DC, I had my own). All questions can be resolved by phone on their website (vacap). The dive center is actually located in the marina (G Kemer Marina). Payment and registration at the pier next to the ships of the Octopus (they have 3-4 ships there, flags are hanging, it is easy to find when you enter the marina through the checkpoint. She had her own gear except for flippers and a suit. The local BCD Mares are in good condition, the fins are closed, the suits are short and 3mm old, the cylinders are good 12 and 15 liters, only air. The cylinders are filled on the ship (after the dive day). The guides are good (Turkish, Danish, Russian-speaking). Diving is mainly designed for beginners. The bottom is not very interesting, there are few animals (krylatki), there were small caves, a statue of a new model. There were 4 certified divers, 10 students, 40 snorkelers. The trip is from 10.30 to 17.30. 1 dive in the morning, then 2 hours break and lunch, then 1 more dive. We stood for a long time, people swam, beginners dived for 15 minutes in groups. The dive sites are about the same every day, 20 minutes away from the Marina. The maximum depth is 18 and 12 meters. In general, it is a normal center for starting diving in Turkey. Diving with them for a week will not be interesting if you are an experienced diver. The price is low. The service is +/- normal. The price includes lunch (salad, bulgur, something fried in breadcrumbs). Water and drinks are paid. You can take water with you. There is free parking near the marina (for those who drive their own car), there are places in the morning, everything was occupied in the evening.
Отнырял с октопусами 15.08.23. Я сертифицированный и достаточно опытный дайвер (300+ погружений). С первых минут чувствуется очень хороший уровень организации процесса. Всех туристов к одному времени привезли в порт, разбили по уровню и рассадили по лодкам. Инструкторы опытные, отлично работают как с новичками, так и с бывалыми водолазами. Анастасия, тебе отдельное спасибо / . Вообще команда очень дружелюбная и гибкая , все работают как единый слаженный механизм. Дайверов, кому позволяла лицензия сводили на затонувший корабль
"Paris", прикоснуться к истории. Отлично провели день.
Резюме: если выберете этот дайв-центр, то попадете в заботливые и опытные руки людей увлеченных своим делом. А что может быть лучше?
