LICA - Ksamil
Out from Ksamil, the LICA wreck sits in just 9m of water, making it pretty accessible for most divers. It’s a torpedo boat, a small but intriguing vessel. We’ve found it’s become a bit of an artificial reef, with plenty of small fish, blennies, and sea slugs making a home in its nooks and crannies. You can fin right over the top of it, catching glimpses into the hull. It’s a good spot for a relaxed second dive, or for those newer to wreck diving wanting to get a feel for exploring something man-made.
