About C-47 Dakota (Wreck)
C-47 Dakota (Wreck) is a short-boat-access wreck dive off Kaş where a decommissioned transport plane was sunk as an artificial reef. The aircraft sits upright on the sand with a cargo-bay penetration that keeps the dive interesting without turning technical. Clear water and a simple profile make it a good fit for newer divers, but buoyancy matters because the sandy bottom can haze up quickly if you stir it.
