Dive-site story
Positioned just outside Frenk Bay near Kalkan, this dive centers on a steep limestone wall that plunges into deep blue water. Divers typically drift along the rock face, scanning deep crevices for sheltering fauna while occasionally turning outward to watch for pelagic hunters patrolling the open blue. Topography features dramatic overhangs, small caverns, and ancient amphora shards embedded into the seabed boulders.
