Fethiye: Fly and Dive, Paragliding and Scuba Diving Together, Transfer Included

Thinking about adding some adrenaline to your trip along Turkey’s stunning Aegean coast? This Fethiye combo tour offering paragliding and scuba diving in one day is quite the adventure. It’s designed for those who want to feel the thrill of soaring high above Oludeniz’s famous beaches and then explore the tranquil underwater world — all with expert guidance and convenient transfers.

What we really like about this experience is how smoothly it combines two very different but equally memorable activities, making for a full, action-packed day. Plus, it’s great that no prior experience is needed for paragliding, and the scuba diving session is suitable for those over 14. That said, it’s worth noting that if you’re not up for the physical side of diving or flying, or if you have mobility concerns, this might not be the best fit.

One thing to keep in mind is that the lunch is only included with the diving tour, so if you’re planning to do both activities on the same day, you’ll want to budget for some extra snacks or drinks. Also, since things are weather-dependent — especially for the water activities — there could be some last-minute changes, so flexibility helps.

This tour is best suited for adventure lovers who want a full-day, value-packed experience with a good mix of sky-high views and underwater discovery. It’s not a casual sightseeing trip but rather a chance to push your boundaries and see Oludeniz from two dramatically different angles.

What to Expect from the Tour

This Fethiye Fly and Dive package is thoughtfully designed to give you a taste of two very different worlds, with an emphasis on safety, scenery, and smooth logistics. The tour begins with an early pickup from your hotel or a designated meeting point in Fethiye or Ölüdeniz. The journey to the activity starts with a comfortable 30-minute drive up to Babadağ, the soaring point for your paragliding adventure.

Paragliding in Ölüdeniz

We loved the way the guides handle the entire process — from fitting the harnesses to giving a quick safety briefing. It’s worth noting that no prior experience is necessary, which is great for beginners or those who’d rather not feel overwhelmed. The instructors first attach you to the parachute and then help you take off using the wind. The feeling of running off the mountain and catching the air is described as exhilarating, with most people enjoying a flight that lasts around 30 minutes.

The views from Babadağ are spectacular. You’ll fly over the famous Ölüdeniz Lagoon, with its turquoise waters and lush surroundings. Many reviews highlight how knowledgeable guides make the experience feel secure and fun, even for nervous flyers. Once back on the ground, you’ll have a chance to see your photos and videos, which are available for purchase.

Transition to Underwater Exploration

After the adrenaline rush, the tour moves on to the scuba diving segment, which departs from Fethiye’s Kordon at around 9:30 am. The boat ride to Dalyan Bay or Aquarium Bay offers a relaxing 1.5-hour cruise, giving you some quiet moments before getting into gear. The diving itself lasts about 30 minutes, and participants must be at least 14 years old.

The dive spot is chosen based on sea conditions, but common locations are Dalyan Bay or Aquarium Bay. With the guidance of trained instructors, you’ll get to see the underwater world in a way that’s both safe and awe-inspiring. The boat crew provides all the necessary equipment, and insurance is included, so you can focus on enjoying the serene environment beneath the waves.

Practicalities and Additional Details

The itinerary is quite straightforward — pickup, transfer to Babadağ, paragliding, then a boat trip with diving. The morning is busy but well-paced, allowing plenty of time to enjoy both activities without feeling rushed. The lunch included with the diving tour is a nice bonus, especially after the physical activities, providing a chance to refuel.

Transport is in air-conditioned vehicles, and the transfers are included in the price, which adds to the overall value. The group sizes tend to be moderate, and the guides speak both English and Turkish, making communication easy.
