We pick you up from the security gate of your hotel with our comfortable air-conditioned vehicle at about 09.00 and go to the Side Harbour to get on the boat. The boat sails towards the underwater museum point and anchors there. After the diving training given by our professional instructors, the diving equipment is delivered to you and you dive for up to 20 minutes accompanied by our instructor divers.
After the first diving session, a tasty lunch will be served on the boat. Sauted chicken, pasta, and salad are on the lunch menu. After lunch, you will have another 20-minute diving session in the afternoon. Then, we will return to the harbour and drop you off at your hotel around 16.00 comfortably.

    Side diving experience

    it was really easy to book the tour online. I booked the tour online via the WhatsApp mobile number provided on the website. Almost immediately I got a response from Mustafa. He answered all my questions and finally sent an online ticket with the confirmed reservation. ( In this sense thanks for the efficient communication and booking)

    The excursion included two dives which each lastet about 15min. The instructors are really knowledgeable and friendly. However for first time divers a more into depth instruction of the diving rules/activity would be really helpful. This would take away the fear of the first diving experience and even encourage further divings. The people on board were really friendly and helpful. Overall it was a fun experience. Thanks a lot!

Very welcome, very friendly staff, well-conditioned van that takes us and drops us off at our villa, and of course the unforgettable diving experience, I especially thank Mustafa for his listening and his help, he is very friendly and has made our experience a lot easier, go for it without thinking !!

    I contacted excursionside before I came to Turkey and got all info we need by whatsapp and booked diving tour online. Mustafa was very helpful with our questions. Joined the tour with my wife and my 15 years old daughter. We were inexperienced divers but Mehmet our divemaster looked after us very well. A special thanks to him. He is an excellent instructor, made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. He took us to sculpture museum, underwater cave and turtle reef. We saw 2 caretta caretta turtles, loads of fish even an octopus and fed it. Absolutely loved the experience. I highly recommend diving in Side. You will NOT regret it.
