Relitto Toikosan Maru

About this dive site

This dive site is located near the Riserva Naturale della Timpa di Acireale (CT). It's a historical shipwreck, and diving permits have been secured by the Diving Center Jonio Pro-Dive Catania in collaboration with the Sovrintendenza per i Beni culturali e Ambientali del Mare and the Capitaneria di Porto di Catania. Divers descend approximately 6 meters along an anchor chain to reach the site, gradually descending to a depth of around 38 meters where the vessel lies upside down. The distinctive silhouette of the large ship, with its prominent rudder and propeller facing upwards, immediately captures the diver's attention—this is undoubtedly the most captivating aspect of this dive. The immersion offers an infinite variety of features.
