Marmaris and Icmeler

• Ask the guide to state depth limits, sea and current conditions, entry/exit procedure, surface pickup, no-decompression limits and emergency oxygen plan. The government dive inventory flags deep walls, variable current and boat traffic at named sites. Official site descriptions
• No overhead entry into Baca Magarasi or any cavity or wreck without appropriate training, equipment, guide approval and lawful access. No touching or recovery of archaeological material. Restricted areas
• Use a trained freediving buddy with one-up-one-down supervision, and never hyperventilate for breath-hold attempts. DAN
• Plan the final dive relative to your flight. DAN suggests at least 12 hours after a single no-decompression dive and 18 hours after multiple dives/days, with longer intervals for decompression dives. These are minimum risk-reduction guidance, not a safety guarantee. DAN flight guidance

Marmaris State Hospital is an official local medical resource. In suspected decompression illness, arterial gas embolism, significant barotrauma, drowning or loss of consciousness, call 112, follow dispatcher advice and have the dive operator supply oxygen if trained and equipped. A Turkish government hospital in Bodrum publishes a hyperbaric oxygen facility, but it is not a confirmed immediate local chamber and its accepting status, clinical indications and emergency transport need medical coordination. Do not self-drive a diver with severe symptoms or take a flight to seek treatment without clinician guidance. Health ministry local hospital | Hospital hyperbaric unit | Emergency dispatch

Marmaris National Park is an official protected terrestrial landscape with distinctive red-pine and sweetgum habitat, and some areas require signed day-use access. At sea, observe port and protected-area restrictions; never disturb amphorae or other heritage, feed fish or collect wildlife. Maintain buoyancy over rock and seabed, dispose of waste ashore, and use boats that avoid unapproved anchoring. A dive site being named on the Mugla tourism page is not proof of legal permission to enter it that day. National Parks Directorate | Heritage sites | National restricted areas
