About this dive site
This dive site presents a compelling wreck experience – a tanker that met its end during the Second World War, tragically sunk by a floating mine. The vessel remains remarkably intact, lying in line with the deck situated at 30 meters below the surface. Divers can navigate between the propeller and rudder, offering an engaging passage through the ship's structure. A notable characteristic of this wreck is its substantial propeller blades, measuring 1.8 meters in length – a unique construction detail reflective of the tanker’s design. This site provides a fascinating glimpse into wartime history combined with a rewarding underwater exploration.
