About this dive site
This dive site, known as Asia Wreck, is located in Italy and offers an exciting dive experience for experienced divers. The wreck itself has been meticulously cleaned in accessible areas, ensuring safety standards are met. Navigation involves exploring the wreck's structure, which may require good buoyancy control and navigation skills. More information regarding the history of the wreck itself would be helpful to provide a richer description.
The marine life is incredibly diverse. Divers can expect to encounter a variety of species including sea bream, anthias, grouper, conger eels, moray eels, lobsters, amberjack, mola mola (ocean sunfish), snappers, nudibranchs, and astrospartus (a type of starfish). This wide range of species makes it a great site for both macro and wide-angle photography.
The best time to visit is likely during the warmer months when visibility is generally better and the water is calmer. Divers should be aware of the variable currents which can change quickly depending on weather conditions. This dive is best suited for experienced divers paired independently or with a guide due to the depth and potential current changes. Always check weather conditions and dive site information before going. Freediving is not advised.
