You can book with confidence!

It was actually really really good! A lot better than other group dives. They really took their time with each person. As licensed scuba divers we were given a bit more freedom, which felt nice. I got a bit freaked having not really kept up with my diving, but it wasn't a problem, they gave me the reassurance I needed to remember what I'd learned and it all came back to my for the second dive. Huge compliment for their patience and respectful manner. We saw some amazing fish and the underwater museum was nice to see. The lunch was good too. The equipment was fine although the wetsuits were a bit well used and damaged. We were relieved that there were only about 35 people on board. We expected the max 15 as stated in the booking would be exceeded. I do feel this is unfair though. You think you're booking a small group when in actual fact, you're joining a number of other small group trips operated by the same provider. It can easily be 60+ before you know it. We booked without transfer (our hotel was excluded from the transfer so we didn't have an option). This worked out well as we took a taxi which cost just €12 more (for a family of 4, return trip). It not only meant that we were taken to the centre of Side, inside the city walls (instead of the long walk from the bus station), it also gave us the freedom afterwards to have a drink and a shop in Side and see it during daylight hours. I would definitely recommend this diving trip, fun and sociable staff with enough knowledge. I wouldn't pay extra for the transfer and do feel it should be mentioned that you have a 20 minute plus walk to the boat.

Diwing in underwater muzeum

"Amazing experience with this team! 🐠 The instructor was fantastic – patient, friendly, and very knowledgeable. The dives were nice and long, with no rush, and we saw plenty of colorful fish and interesting underwater spots. Of course, it’s not Egypt, but the underwater world here is still truly impressive. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to spend time actively and discover something unique!" --

Book diving now!

The best excursion I have been on to date across multiple countries. Far exceeds expectations, lovely staff and good food. The dive itself was mesmerising. I cannot recommend this company enough. We were even able to pay extra for a speedboat straight to our hotel’s beach to save the bus trip back. The photos & videos are available to purchase on the boat of your entire dive and are of excellent quality! Thank you!

Quite good, but not what we had expected

The actual dives were well organised, good lunch etc. But we deliberatly chose this dive as it was supposed to be small with 10 people. Instead, there were 80 on a large 3 tiered boat so it felt very unlike what we had paid for, and a lot of waiting around. The actual dives were one master diver per couple so that took a lot of time. We also didn't go to 2 different locations, but were in the same area. Not a lot of coloured fish, no coral and a lot of concrete statues, columns etc. To buy the photos and video is VERY expensive - Euro 80

Safety is their number one priority

Hakan and his crew were amazing. They made everyone feel inclusive. Before the dives Hakan explained in English Russian German and Turkish the important aspects of the safety equipment. He kept reiterating until everyone understood. His divers stayed with people throughout ensuring their safety. Having dived all over the world I can confidently say Harka’s team were very professional and everyone was kept safe. Thank you to everyone at Silver Diving.

One day for two times 15 minutes in the sea

Group was to crowded. It takes time to prepare equipment but, well 90% of time is waiting. You dont get a foam, (instructors had them, they where a lot on the boat, noone offered to dressup). Lunch is ok, drinks (like Cola, fanta 0.3 L can) about 2 euro. You need to walk two times about 2 km in full sun, where there is a road and a car transfer could be used. Divers are full professional - but that's it, a full day for a two times 15 minutes in the water dive.

Horrible.

Sorry to say. I did not like it. The boat stayed for a unneccesary amount of time on the water. Everybody was tired and sick of it. After the dive we could have returned normally but they stayed an hour on water. Very sickening. It leads people on and results in an unexpected and unfortunate experience. The other divers itself were kind. But strange experience we couldn’t wait to get away as soon as possible. And also we had to walk almost 2 km in the scorching sun to the bay. Not noticing and taking care of some people in the group who were not fast or so mobile to keep up with the group. The tour leaders just went their way on the road leaving behind people. And 2 of the divers insulted me regarding personal reasons. Very upsetting.
