Featured Dive Site – Wreck “Reggio Messina”

This vessel was a ferry of length 115m and tasked with train transportation to Italy. She was towed on her last voyage from Barcelona to Estartit in 1991 where she was ultimately brought to this location and purposefully sunk to create an artificial reef & thus a great dive!

To date this hasn’t been wildly successful since she bears little coral and few fish but the wreck herself remains of interest to divers with several swim-throughs. She broke in two during the descent to 35m where she lays with the stern section marked with a buoy. The bow section is some forty or so metres away on the headland. Certainly a dive to add to your dive program when you arrive here with Fleet Dive.
