Paris 2 is Kemer's historic boat-access wreck dive.
Paris 2 is Kemer's historic wreck dive, a World War I French warship on a sandy seabed just off the harbor. The wreck offers a straightforward boat profile with damaged sections, metal structure, and marine growth rather than a reef-style circuit. It is best for certified divers who are comfortable with a deeper profile and visibility that can vary from dive to dive.
