Düden Selalesi -Water Fall - Kas & Kekova
Düden Selalesi offers a unique dive, essentially an underwater waterfall. Freshwater cascades into the sea, creating a noticeable thermocline and visual effect as the different water densities mix. It’s a shallow dive, around 15 metres, best for intermediate divers looking for something a bit different rather than a typical reef experience. You'll feel the cool freshwater on your face and see the blurry effect where the waters meet.
