A fundraising campaign has been set up to help the young man’s family bring him back to Britain.
The death comes just days after another British holidaymaker died in Turkey.
The 73-year-old apparently suffered a heart attack after jumping into the sea during a coastal trip in Marmaris, Mugla province.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been contacted for comment.
