About this dive site

This dive site features the impressive wreck of the Italian scout cruiser Rossarol, which sank in 1918 after hitting a mine. Lying at a depth of 40 to 60 meters, the wreck is broken in two and offers a challenging but rewarding dive for experienced technical divers. It is now an artificial reef teeming with marine life, including large conger eels and lobsters.
