Dive-site story
Located off the rugged headland south of the Fethiye gulf, Iblis Reef offers an offshore rock formation characterized by rocky drop-offs, swim-throughs, and extensive boulder fields. The promontory acts as a natural magnet for marine life moving along the coast, with steep slopes plunging into deeper water where pelagic fish frequently cruise by.
