Kaş

Kaş is a coastal town in southwestern Turkey and a practical gateway for divers exploring the Eastern Mediterranean. While the town itself is small, it serves as a launch point for day trips to nearby reefs, walls, and underwater caves along the Kaş–Kalkan coastline. Local dive centers offer courses, equipment rental, and boat dives to accessible sites in the Mediterranean. Conditions are generally warm with clear to moderately turbid water, depending on the season, and common sightings include rocky reefs, groupers, and schools of small fish. For freshwater diving options, nearby inland sites are limited; most divers in the area focus on saltwater diving along the coast.
