Kaş Dive Sites (C-47 Dakota Wreck & Lighthouse Reef)
Kaş Dalış Noktaları
Turkey's most famous diving town, with a deliberately sunk C-47 transport plane, shipwrecks, undersea canyons and ancient amphorae in its bay.
There are dozens of dive sites around Kaş, just 10–20 minutes by boat from the harbor. The wreck of the C-47 Dakota transport plane lies at about 22 m and suits advanced divers. Around the Lighthouse (Fener) reef and Pigeon Island, the reef walls are home to groupers, sea turtles and sponges. The Kanyon undersea canyon can be dived to more than 30 m. There are also the wreck of a WWII Italian bomber and scattered Lycian amphorae. The town has many dive shops; a guided dive costs about €40–60, and a PADI Open Water course takes about 3–4 days.
