Sailing in Turkey also allows visitors to experience the hospitality of the people in the coastal villages and towns. The tempered winds blowing from west and northwest make the long summers ideal for yachting, and seem to encourage an appreciation of nature. From some of the turquoise coast's unspoilt and sheltered bays you can see mountain peaks rising to almost 3000 meters above sea level.

ACTIVE BLUE DIVING CENTRE

Kuşadası - Aydın - Turkey

GPS : 37°52'03.2"N 27°15'52.9"E / 37.867559, 27.264685



PHOTOGRAPHS ALBUM

Dive airplane wreck off the coast of Turkey: Airbus A300. The last flight of the Airbus A300 took little more than three hours and the landing was as planned: gentle and perfect! However from this landing, on the sea floor off the Turkish port of Kusadasi, the Airbus A300, built in Toulouse in 1980, will never rise again. It was a calm, sunny day on the Aegean coast and the huge trunk of the Airbus A300 lay on the beach, supported by a huge mobile crane. If was about to begin its last journey, a trip to the sea floor to serve as an attraction for divers.

The Airbus A300 has flown thousands of flights been since it first took off on March 14, 1980. After nearly 20 years in service to Greek Olympic Airways the plane was refitted for cargo use. Since June 2006, the A300 flew cargo in Turkey before being retired from active service when high inspection costs meant the plane was no longer profitable. The end of cargo flights was far from the end of the line though for this old timer as another exciting chapter was yet to come.

The aircraft was purchased with the help of sponsors. It was dismantled and made its way by road from Istanbul to Kusadasi, where the A300 was again completely assembled and prepared for sinking just off the entrance to the port of Kuşadası. All dangerous parts, obstacles in the interior as well as glass and sharp edged parts were professionally removed before it was ready for the final flight to the seabed.

More than 3,000 onlookers and numerous sports boat captains gathered to view the sinking. The big crane supported the 54 meters long and eight meters wide fuselage as it was set on large cushioning bags which were attached to the hull and the 45-meter-wide wings. Cautiously the huge plane was then dragged from the coast and towed to the sinking location between the port of Kuşadası and the Kuştur coast. The new dive site Airbus A300 is just ten minutes from the Active Blue Diving Center and the port of Kuşadası in five-minute drive away.

After a little more than three hours the bird had landed. At 22 meters depth the A300 is now on a level sandy bottom. The dive depth is around 17 meters depth and the dive site has an average of 10 to 15 meters visibility.

The first impressions of diving on the wreck are how magnificent it is from above. Entering through the side of the fuselage brings the diver to the long tubular interior and slowly the shear dimensions of the giant aircraft are sensed. The cabin windows allow the sunlight near surface to shimmer into the interior of the aircraft and illuminate the almost spooky scene.

The highlight of the dive is a flight through the interior of the A300 to visit the cockpit. The fittings, cables and switches have all been removed but it’s a special feeling to sit in one of the three cockpit seats and to look beyond, into the impenetrable blue gray of the Mediterranean.

The newly sunk A300 is now the new top diving spot off the Turkish coast and is likely to remain so for a long time. To withstand the sometimes fierce autumn and winter storms the huge hull has been attached to the seafloor with maximum security and to enable divers a safe descent to the new wreck a guide rope and permanent surface marker has been installed. Airbus A300 Kuşadası – ready to dive (hap).

Kuşadası Marina is close to the centre of the town with all facilities within walking distance. There are tenniscourts and a swimming pool available to yacht crews. The marina is part of the Setur portfolio

Kuşadası is a tourism and shopping center for tour operators and a cruise destination. There are several good beaches close by and the marina is a good base from which to explore the many sites of antiquity. The marina is very close to Ephesus, one of the most famous and the best preserved antique sites of the world.

The Approach
A shallow rocky reef that extends 200 m in a western direction from the root of the outer mole of the marina called Akburun Kayası. Care must be taken for westerly approaches. Another reef is named Petroma Kayası (rocky reef). This reef with submerged rocky patches extends in a westerly direction about half a mile from Yılancı Burnu.

When approaching Kuşadası from the south or west (e.g. having passed through the Straits of Samos), a yacht should be sure to pass well offshore of the headlands of Karga Burnu and Yalancı Burnu to the S of Kuşadası, both of which have reefs extending some distance offshore. A new W cardinal buoy is now in position off Yalancı Burnu, about one mile SW of Bird Island (the conspicuous island with a small castle on it on the S side of Kuşadası harbour).

A course 100 metres W of this buoy will clear all the dangers. Note, however, that there is a further shoal patch around 200 metres due N of the Yalancı Burnu buoy where depths shoal to around 5 - 6 metres. This is now marked with a isolated danger mark (black/red/black with two black ball topmarks) and a yacht can pass safely 50 metres on either side. Finally, a further dangerous reef near the root of the marina breakwater is marked with another W cardinal mark.

Maximum depth within the marina is 5 metres and as moorings are laid, you should not drop anchor. 24 hour mooring assistance is provided at the Setur Kuşadası Marina which has a Blue Flag.

As in other Setur Marinas, the Kuşadası Marina boatyard; lifting, launching, and high-pressure washing services as well as all kinds of winter services and periodic maintenance that includes battery charging, bilge control, ventilation, engine running etc. are provided.

Maintenance and repair services provided by workshops within the marina include paint application and care, osmosis protection and treatment, polishing, varnishing, epoxy-polyester work, manufacture and repair of sails, tarpaulins, winter boat covers, bimini canopies and sprayhoods; all kinds of main engine, generator and outboard engine repair and overhauls, carpentry, stainless and galvanized steel work, wooden deck components, furniture manufacture and repairs as well as repair assembly and maintenance of electrical equipment and appliances.

EPHESUS
GPS : 37°56'28.0"N 27°20'31.0"E / 37.941111, 27.341944

Ephesus, one of the major and best preserved Greco-Roman sites in Turkey, is located nearby, about 20 minutes by car. Ephesus, Turkish: Efes; ultimately from Hittite Apasa) was an ancient Greek city on the coast of Ionia, three kilometers southwest of present-day Selçuk in İzmir Province. It was built in the 10th century BC on the site of the former Arzawan capital by Attic and Ionian Greek colonists.

During the Classical Greek era it was one of the twelve cities of the Ionian League. The city flourished after it came under the control of the Roman Republic in 129 BC. According to estimates Ephesus had a population of 33,600 to 56,000 people in the Roman period, making it the third largest city of Roman Asia Minor after Sardis and Alexandria Troas. The city was famed for the Temple of Artemis (completed around 550 BC), one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. In 268 AD, the Temple was destroyed or damaged in a raid by the Goths.

It may have been rebuilt or repaired but this is uncertain, as its later history is not clear. Emperor Constantine I rebuilt much of the city and erected new public baths. Following the Edict of Thessalonica from emperor Theodosius I, what remained of the temple was destroyed in 401 AD by a mob led by St. John Chrysostom. The town was partially destroyed by an earthquake in 614 AD. The city's importance as a commercial center declined as the harbor was slowly silted up by the Cayster River (Küçük Menderes).

Ephesus was one of the seven churches of Asia that are cited in the Book of Revelation. The Gospel of John may have been written here. The city was the site of several 5th century Christian Councils (see Council of Ephesus). It is also the site of a large gladiators' graveyard.

DİLEK NATIONAL PARK
Davutlar is an ideal base to explore and discover the flora and fauna of Turkey as it is close to Dilek national park, a protected area, and home for many species of animal including wild boar. Within the park are many beaches and picnic areas, but experienced hikers should head up into the mountains for further exploration. Davutlar region is marvelous for nature lovers. Dilek peninsula, which is located in the south of Davutlar, is really worth to be seen with its forests, various picnic areas and trekking paths.

FISH RESTAURANTS
Fish Restaurants are very famous with their fishes, cooking and services. Fishes available due to seasons.

Kuşadası is a resort town on Turkey's Aegean coast and the center of the seaside district of the same name in Aydın Province. Kuşadası lies at a distance of 95 km (59 mi) to the south from the region's largest metropolitan center of İzmir, and 71 km (44 mi) from the provincial seat of Aydın situated inland. Its primary industry is tourism.

Kuşadası is today a major holiday resort centre. During the summer months it teems with swimmers, fishermen, sun-lovers and sightseers. Once known as Scala Nova, the town boasts wonderful seafood restaurants, cafes, beautiful parks and superb beaches. The shopping is also famous; everything from beads and bangles to leather, jewelry and carpets is on offer.

Kuşadası caters to tourists, arriving by land, and as the port for cruise ship passengers heading to Ephesus. In a controversial deal in 2003 the previously public-owned port was leased to a private company and renovated to attract luxury cruise liners. The Grand Princess docks here, along with other cruise ships.

SU ISLAND ANCHORAGE

Kuşadası - Aydın - Turkey

GPS : 37°39'07.8"N 27°00'37.8"E / 37.652168, 27.010510



Su Adası is located in the east side of Tavşan Adası as the island is on the southeast of Sisam Strait. The coastal line of the island is formed as a rock reef so the only possible entry of the bay is located in the south of Tavşan Adası. The bay between Su Islet and the land ensures satisfying shelter from northern winds.

At the entry, there is enough depth (7 - 9 meters) to protect ashore sufficiently. The east side of the bay is shallow and there are seaweeds so be sure about your anchor is well laid out in the seabed as powerful winds will send swell into the bay.

There are sufficient depths at the entry ( 7 - 9 meters) it shelves ashore gradually. The eastern side of the bay is shallow. The bottom is weed-make sure that your anchor is well dug in. Strong breezes will send swell into the bay.

Su Adası is a layover anchorage for those cruising towards Dilek Boğazı (Strait).

Tavşan Islet is connected to shore by rocky reefs; its shoreline is sheer rocks.
