Dunya Yachts operates a 30,000-square-metre superyacht facility in Tuzla, less than an hour from Istanbul. Standing among the largest yards in Turkey, the site features four covered sheds designed to accommodate custom projects up to 100m LOA.

A key element of the site is the region’s only fully climate-controlled dry dock. This technical capability gives the company full control over environmental conditions during delicate exterior paintwork, extensive refits, and structural modifications.

The yard gained widespread acclaim as the builder of the 72-metre superyacht Axioma, originally delivered as Red Square. While new construction remains an essential focus, the company frequently handles major overhauls, routine maintenance, and complex engineering upgrades.

Family-run leadership maintains a direct, hands-on approach across all client projects. Over the past decade, Dunya Yachts has completed major works on more than 25 luxury yachts up to 72m, combining modern technical standards with refined execution.
