Varna

Varna offers a unique diving experience in the enigmatic waters of the Black Sea. Unlike tropical destinations, its allure lies in exploring a submerged history, particularly its collection of well-preserved shipwrecks from various eras, including World War II. The brackish water and anoxic deep layers contribute to the preservation of these steel and wooden relics. Divers are drawn to the thrill of underwater archaeology and the quiet, mysterious atmosphere that surrounds these sunken time capsules, making it a distinctive cold-water wreck diving hub in Eastern Europe.

Diving conditions in Varna are highly seasonal, with the prime season running from June to September when water temperatures are at their most comfortable. Visibility can be variable, typically ranging from 5 to 15 meters, adding to the exploratory feel of the dives. For divers seeking an adventure off the beaten path, Varna provides a compelling alternative to coral reefs. The opportunity to connect with history firsthand, combined with the charm of the Bulgarian coast, makes it a rewarding destination for wreck enthusiasts and those looking for a different kind of underwater journey.
