Dive-site story
Neptün is an offshore reef formation located in the waters near Kaş. Characterized by stepped limestone plateaus dropping into deeper drop-offs and rocky rubble fields, the site provides excellent structure for Mediterranean fauna. Scattered throughout the rocky terrain are broken fragments of ancient amphorae, relics of historical shipping routes through the Lycian coast.
