Snorkelen Boottocht in Kas

The lunch and afternoon fruit were the highlight of a very enjoyable 8 hour snorkling trip. Truly incredible cooking! Swimming always makes me hungry, but the fresh fish and tasty meze brought it to another level. The cut red plums and melon in the late afternoon also hit the spot perfectly. We went to 4 snorkling spots. The water was beautiful and perfect temperature (mid-June). We saw many fish, a sunken tank, and even a sea turtle from the boat (everybody dove in to see it from the water, but it swam away). The snorkling is not world class (compared to Thailand, for example), but more than enough to entertain kids and novice snorklers. Our boat was clean and the captain and first mate friendly (though they didn't speak much English).

The snorkeling boat cruise was exactly what we were hoping for. We are two American adults and the other 7 guests were Turkish - all adults and very friendly and fun. The boat was luxurious and very clean. The captain on the boat and assistant were very skilled at sea. We felt in good hands and they provided quality snorkels and fins (for which we were asked our sizes ahead of time). They also provided floats for everyone who didn’t want to snorkel. The captain personally led me and my friend to some really cool snorkel locations including a sunken tank! The water is warm and clear with a good amount of fish to see, especially close to the shores. The scenery is gorgeous the entire cruise and very unique. The weather is ideal...warm air makes the water inviting and warm water makes it fun to get in and out multiple times. I never needed my sweatshirt. The food was excellent. Our lunch included whole grilled fish and countless side dishes - all fresh and authentic. Later in the day, there was a beautiful spread of fruit and coffee/tea, including the most flavorful strawberries I’ve ever tasted. I think there were five stops throughout the day, four warm snorkeling spots and a cooler natural spring at the end. Brave the chill of the last spot. It’s worth it to emerge from the narrow passage near where the spring originates. And the crew served hot tea directly afterward to take the edge off. We booked the cruise through Viator with Larsoy Travel & Tourism Office. Captain Ergun coordinated for us and was very proactive in learning and accommodating all of our preferences.

My sister and I went on a day boat trip in Kas. It was such a lovely day where we stopped at many different places to swim and snorkle. We also stopped to visit Kekova Island where we saw the ruins of a castle, wandered through the local people's stalls where they sold clothing and beaded jewellery, and ended with a delicious ice cream at a cafe with a terrific view. On the boat we also enjoyed a delicious lunch of fresh fish. Thank you Captain Ergun and crew!
