General Marmaris weather and dive-season guidance.
Kadirga Bay
Rocky Marmaris bay with amphora terrain.
Local operator required
Use a Marmaris dive boat; the cove has no road connection and is easiest to handle as a guided trip.
About Kadirga Bay
Kadirga Bay is a remote Marmaris boat dive with a rocky approach, amphora-strewn seabed, and a deeper line offshore. It suits divers who want archaeology, clear Mediterranean water, and a relaxed day-boat profile rather than a coral reef or a simple swim-through. Calm surface conditions and lighter boat traffic make it easier to enjoy.

Local Intel For Kadirga Bay
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Best as a slow boat dive across the shallow edge and into the amphora field offshore.

The shallow edge can be explored, but scuba is the better fit for the full site.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling only works on the shallow edge; the deeper archaeology is a scuba target.
