Pro Tips
- 1.Book activities early in the morning (around 8-9 AM) when the water is calmer and it's less crowded, especially during peak summer months.
- 2.Bring reef shoes or water shoes as the beach can have pebbles, and pack waterproof phone cases for capturing family memories on the banana boat.
- 3.Ask about family package deals that combine multiple activities at a discounted rate rather than booking individually.
- 4.Apply waterproof sunscreen at least 30 minutes before activities, as the Turkish sun is intense and you'll be on the water where UV rays reflect.
- 5.The facility is located at a hotel beach, so non-guests can still access the watersports but confirm availability ahead during high season (July-August).
