Dive sites in Türkiye

Located off the southern coast of Karaada near Bodrum, Paçoz Bay holds an intentionally scuttled Douglas C-47 Dakota military transport aircraft. Sunk as an artificial reef project, the plane rests across a sloping sandy seabed. Winter swells have separated the fuselage and wings over time, leaving open sections to inspect alongside adjacent rocky drop-offs.

Sunk intentionally off Karaada near Bodrum, the decommissioned Turkish Coast Guard patrol boat TCSG-115 rests upright on sand. The steel hull functions as an artificial reef, drawing pelagic species alongside structure-dwelling fish. Divers can circumnavigate the exterior decks, inspect the wheelhouse, or enter corridors prepared with wide access cuts.
