Submarine Net Barrier

Also known as: Submarine Mania Network · Submarine Prevention Steel Nets · Submarine Obstacle Network

The anti-submarine nets were made at the Golden Horn shipyard in Istanbul with a square 4 by 4 mesh. Twenty-five nets, each 60 m long and 30 m deep, were installed in June and July between Akbaş Bay and Nara Point and between Bigalı Castle and Nara Point. One of these nets has been located in Akbaş Bay and is now open to divers. It offers a rare look at the defences that caught submarines in the narrows during the campaign.
