    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    The *Rita Zovetto*, a steamship resting in just seven metres of water on Bermuda’s North Shore, feels more like an artificial reef than a traditional wreck. She went down in 1924, and almost a century later, the ocean has thoroughly reclaimed her. We love to poke around the scattered boiler parts and hull plates, all encrusted with sponges and hard corals. You’ll find parrotfish grazing here, and we've often spotted barracuda hovering just off the deeper sections. It’s a comfortable, easy dive, perfect for newer divers or anyone looking for a relaxed afternoon exploring history.
