Getting my Diving certificate at Okenos was my luck! First I had travelled all the way to Kemer to get my diving license but after a one day of diving with their tour I found the staff very unprofessional and the centre money-focused. I was lucky a friendly gentleman who owned a diving centre in Scotland was diving with us... More

We dived with Okenos in August as fairly inexperienced divers. Despite having prebooked, the first day we were waiting a total of 5 hours as they pushed try diver after try diver through - its obvious where their priorites are in the high season. The local diving is poor - very little life under water, the DC3 wreck is really... More

Booked a days diving, sold as 2 boat dives, accepting that the dives would close to center. Briefing for first dive led us to believe the depth would be 15-18mtrs on a reef - actually 7mtrs. Did see some life but this is clearly a dive site in regular use. Post dive returned to center for lunch and rest. It... More

We booked a diving trip to Altinkum AFTER contacting Okenos and being assured they were operating and would be expecting us. We also paid to take babysitters with us to look after our 2 year old whilst diving. When we arrived the centre was closed up! We found a local who knew Sinan and phoned him. He told us it... More
