Thriving

Bodrum

Turkey · Mediterranean

Bodrum sits on the turquoise Turkish Aegean where ancient trade routes have left a seafloor scattered with amphora-laden wrecks and reef systems rich with Mediterranean marine life. Karaada's geothermal vents and the region's rocky reefs draw dentex, grouper, and octopus year-round.
