English Harbour Wreck
Marmaris · Turkey
English Harbour shelters a sunken vessel resting on a sandy bottom at accessible depths, its superstructure now a riot of encrusting life and one of the most photogenic wreck dives on the Turkish Riviera. Schools of bream and damselfish orbit the hull while lionfish have colonised the interior cavities alongside moray eels and crustaceans. The wreck sits within a broader bay that includes sandy rubble zones excellent for hunting for seahorses, cuttlefish, and banded shrimp, making this an all-round site for divers of any level.
