Photographer’s Note

Cape Çoban - the tunnel :
the predominant winds and surge usually allow this dive only before noon but there is no current... going immediately down to 20m from the dive boat that anchors on the calm north side of the point and cruising west at exactly that dept one arrives directtly at the entrance of the tunnel, a large chimney hidden between big rocks... It's very easy to miss it by cruising a little below or a little above !.. Salute the keeper of the gate , a big grouper, and go down the hole slowly. The exit is comfortingly seen right away. The 10m long tunnel has most of its "Neptun's lace" on its ceiling broken by divers bubbles and are now dense in the dark dents on both left and right walls continuing out of the tunnel. you may climb up the north wall (to your right going out of the tunnel) and turn clockwise around its top to get back towards the boat, or climb the south wall and go further south to wander around some big rocks and back... As you get close to the boat, fresh water leaks out from cracks around 14m and life abounds there under the rocks... The bottom of the 6m wall by the shore is ideal for a safety stop.

*from: "The Diving Guide Kaş" - Murat Draman -

Dip Not: Kaş adına çok özenli ve enfes bir esere (The Diving Guide KAŞ) imza atan Murat Draman'ı yürekten kutluyorum. Kendisi akademik kariyerinin yanına sualtı biyolojisi ve sualtı fotoğrafcılığını da ekleyerek ortaya koyduğu bu eser Kaş'ın bu konudaki beklentisini oldukca "kaliteli" bir şekilde karşılamış durumda...
Sualtı Araştırmaları Derneğinde de 2000-2006 yılları arasında YK Başkanlığı yapan Draman aynı zamanda PADI OWSI Dalış Eğitmeni ve TSSF Sualtı rehberi...
Kendisi halen Kaş'da Dragoman Doğa Sporları Merkezi ve Kaş-Arşipel Dalış Merkezi aracılığı ile Kaş'ın turizmine de hizmet etmekte...
