Women Power on World Divers Day: Dive Girls 2024

The “Dalsın Kızlar” project, the first of which took place in Marmaris in 2019, introduces women to the magical world of underwater and sets out with the aim of revealing women’s power, is starting again!

The 2nd edition of Dalsın Kızlar will take place in Manavgat, Side, Antalya on June 07 – 08 – 09, 2024 under the leadership of Gaye Dülger, founder and head instructor of Nereids Diving Center, dedicated to “World Divers Day”.

The event, which will be organized for all women aged 15 and over who have not had the opportunity to meet the magical world of underwater before, aims to introduce women to the underwater world and increase the number of female divers. Certified female divers who have dived before will also take part in the project to encourage their sisters who will meet diving for the first time.

The project will also draw attention to plastic bags and chemical wastes, 80% of which originate from land and the rest from passenger and fishing vessels, which pose a threat to all living things.

With the intense interest of women, the project, which was held for the first time in Marmaris in 2019, attracted the attention of the press and the public, and succeeded in becoming the organization that dived the most women in the events held in Europe within the scope of “World Women Divers Day” on the same dates. In 2019, the excitement, enthusiasm, happiness and enthusiasm of the participants who returned from the event with brand new experiences, memories and friendships inspired the “Dalsın Kızlar 2024” project.

Gaye Dülger, Founder and Head Instructor of Nereids Diving Center, said: “Dalsın Kızlar and similar projects that demonstrate women’s power are important steps that allow women to discover themselves and empower themselves in different fields. It makes me very happy to see that our project carries the mission of giving women self-confidence and empowerment through shared experiences and reflects the desire to leave an inspiring legacy for future generations. I hope that this project will create a platform where women can support each other not only under the sea but also in all areas of life. I hope that the ‘Dalsın Kızlar’ project will continue successfully and offer more women the opportunity to discover this magical world under the sea!”
