What an awesome family adventure! We recently went scuba diving in Side, and it was such a blast. My kids loved the underwater museum with its cool sculptures — the ‘Whirling Dervish’ was a hit! This tour is perfect for families. The guides were super friendly, making our first underwater experience safe and fun. I'd totally recommend it if you're around.

If you're up for a day full of excitement and a touch of tranquility, this is perfect. The diving spots were impressive and kid-friendly activities on board made it worthwhile for our whole family. Snorkeling around those sculptures was surreal. Just bring extra snacks and water for the best day ever!

A fantastic day on the Scuba Diving in Side tour! Really cool underwater sights like shipwrecks and unique sculptures you don't see every day. Even if diving isn’t really your thing, the snorkeling is a relaxing alternative. The whole family had something they enjoyed. Definitely something unique to try in Side!

Fantastic tour! The perfect mix of Jesse Jeep adventure and relaxed seaside fun all packed into one day. We got to explore shipwrecks and the underwater museum that truly exceeded our family's expectations. Can't swim? No worries, several in our group just relaxed and sunbathed, soaking in the Mediterranean beauty. A family must-do in Side!
