Reef Diving Site (Shark Rocks)

Reef Diving Area is a dive site located off Arıburnu, known for its natural rock and reef structures. Locally referred to as “Shark Stones” by the diving community, the area stands out for its varied underwater topography.

With depths ranging from 24 to 50 meters, the site is suitable for intermediate and advanced divers. Given the depth, careful gas planning, assessment of current and visibility conditions, and surface support are essential.

Depending on the reef topography, gorgonians, sponge communities, and various benthic organisms can be observed in the area. Species diversity varies with seasonal and hydrographic conditions. Diving in accordance with the regulations established by authorized dive centers and park management is essential for both diver safety and the protection of the marine environment.

Resif Dalış Alanı Arıburnu açıklarında, doğal kaya ve resif yapılarıyla öne çıkan bir dalış noktasıdır. Yerel dalış topluluğunda “Köpekbalığı Taşları” olarak bilinen bölge, farklı su altı topoğrafyasıyla dikkat çeker.
24 – 50 metre derinlik aralığında bulunan dalış alanı, orta ve ileri seviye dalgıçlara hitap eder. Derinlik nedeniyle dalış öncesi gaz planlaması yapılması, akıntı ve görüş koşullarının değerlendirilmesi ve yüzey desteğinin sağlanması önemlidir.

Bölgedeki resif yapısına bağlı olarak gorgonlar, sünger toplulukları ve çeşitli dip canlıları gözlemlenebilir. Tür çeşitliliği mevsimsel ve hidroğrafik koşullara göre değişiklik gösterir.

Dalışların yetkili dalış merkezleri ve park yönetiminin belirlediği kurallara uygun şekilde gerçekleştirilmesi, hem dalış güvenliği hem de doğal yaşamın korunması açısından önem taşır.

WHAT IS A BARGE?

Barges are wide, flat-bottomed vessels with a shallow draft, designed to carry heavy loads in relatively shallow waters. Depending on their design and purpose, they could be either powered or unpowered.

Their low draft and broad hull made them particularly useful for transporting cargo, equipment and personnel close to shore, where deeper-draft vessels could not operate as easily.

During the Gallipoli Campaign, barges were used to transport soldiers, supplies, am******on, construction materials and even animals such as horses and mules to the landing areas.

Today, several of these vessels remain as wrecks in the waters around Gallipoli.

⚓ Explore the barges of the Gallipoli Historical Underwater Park.
