The Antalya region has an excellent reputation for diving in Turkey. All of the best hotels in the area offer diving courses along with the many dive centres which offer good professional instruction for beginners as well as cave, wreck and night dives for more experienced divers. Many divers come to the area to explore the Adrasan Caves.

Away from the beach there are lots of opportunities for walking, hiking and horse riding.
