History
Mania Nets were produced at the Haliç Shipyard to prevent submarines from passing through the straits.

The nets, designed in a 4 X 4 configuration, are square in shape. The Mania Nets, which have a length of 60 m and a depth of 30 m, are positioned between Akbaş Bay and Nara Point, as well as between Bigalı Castle and Nara Point.

A total of 25 nets were established between June 26 and July 27, spreading over an area of approximately 1500 meters between the buoys. One of the 60-meter nets identified in Akbaş Bay serves as an example of the Mania Nets and is still waiting to be discovered by divers 106 years later.
