From Kusadasi
Discover the underwater side of the coast on our daily scuba diving tour from Selcuk, a sea adventure open to complete beginners as well as certified divers. The programme for first-timers combines a short theory lesson with one dive led by experienced instructors, while more confident divers can explore reefs, shipwrecks and special outings. It is a refreshing day tour and a perfect contrast to the ancient sites of Ephesus.
This Scuba Diving Tour also works as a shore excursion from the Kuşadası cruise port — a popular choice for passengers who have one day ashore. Shared departures follow a fixed timetable, so please send us your ship’s arrival and departure times when booking — we confirm pier pickup or suggest the private option for tight port calls. Tell us how many hours your ship stays in port and we will confirm that the full programme fits comfortably. Simply share your cruise itinerary and the date you are in Kuşadası, and we will reserve your places.
Guests staying on Samos or Patmos can enjoy the Scuba Diving Tour as a day trip from the Greek islands to Turkey — from Samos the ferry takes 45 minutes; from Patmos the ferry takes about 3 hours, so the excursion can be planned between the morning and evening sailings. Pickup is at the Kuşadası ferry terminal, and the tour is timed so you can catch the return ferry comfortably. For longer itineraries we check the ferry timetable first and confirm that the full programme fits your day. Please bring your passport and check the Turkish entry requirements for your nationality before travelling.
The Aegean coast near Selcuk and Kusadasi is known for good visibility, rocky reefs and a lively mix of fish, octopus and other marine life that thrive among the stones and sea grass. Wreck sites add another layer of interest, as sunken hulls quickly become artificial reefs that attract colourful creatures. For beginners, the instructors explain breathing, equalising and basic hand signals before guiding each guest in the water, so you can relax and enjoy the experience at your own pace.
On this Selcuk day trip, transfers from and back to your hotel are included and an English-speaking guide assists the group, while the diving itself is supervised by the instructors. As a guide to timing, one tank of air lasts roughly thirty to forty minutes underwater. Lunch is not included in this daily excursion, so bring snacks or plan a meal afterwards, along with swimwear, a towel and sun protection. Guests with medical conditions should check with us before booking, as diving has its own health requirements.
Your full day programme — click to see every stop.
Aegean Scuba Diving Programme The day starts at around 08:30 in the morning, when your guide meets you in the lobby of your hotel in Selcuk and you are transferred to the coast to join the diving team. Beginners receive a short theoretical lesson from experienced scuba instructors, covering how the equipment works, breathing underwater and the essential safety signals, before making one guided dive. The aim is to descend towards the reefs and, depending on conditions, the shipwrecks that lie in the crystal-clear Aegean waters, watching the marine life up close. Guests who prefer not to dive can choose snorkelling instead, and certified divers can ask about more specialised outings such as night dives, wreck dives or an introduction to underwater photography. Please note that a single tank of air gives approximately thirty to forty minutes of bottom time. Once the diving session is complete and you have changed, you are transferred back to your hotel in Selcuk.

My husband and I chose Inca Tour for our honeymoon and we are so glad we did. The boutique hotel selection was beautiful and the Bosphorus dinner cruise was so romantic. Thank you for making our trip special!
It was important for us to have a guide who spoke Russian, and Ender was wonderful. He explained every detail at Dolmabahce Palace. The Princes Islands day trip was a beautiful break from the busy city.
Our guide Ender was incredibly knowledgeable about Turkish history. The hot-air balloon ride at sunrise in Cappadocia was the highlight of our trip. Everything was perfectly organized — from airport pick-up to the last d...
Ender was our Italian-speaking guide and we felt like family. He took us to local spots tourists never see. The hotel choice in Sultanahmet was perfect for walking everywhere.
10+ years later we still talk about our Cappadocia balloon ride and the Bosphorus sunset cruise. Some memories are timeless. Thank you Inca Tour!
