A fundraiser has been set up to help the family of the young man bring him back to the UK.
A Foreign Office (FCDO) spokesperson said: 'We are supporting the family of a British man who died in Turkey.'
The death comes just days after another British holidaymaker died in Turkey.
The 73-year-old suffered a suspected heart attack after jumping into the sea during a coastal tour in Marmaris, Mugla Province.
