South Point
South Point: protected Bodrum bay with a deeper reef option.
Boat access from Bodrum to Karaada, with a sheltered bay for training and a deeper reef line for advanced divers when south wind is light.
About South Point
South Point is a boat-dived site on the south end of Karaada/Black Island in Bodrum, built around a very protected bay with three distinct lines. The bay has a shallow sandy training bottom and easy upper-level routes on the left and right, while the deeper sponge reef is the advanced option for divers who want more structure and marine life. Plan it as a calm-water Aegean day trip, and give extra respect to south wind and boat traffic in the bay.
