    The Schlossvilla wreck sits upright on the seabed at 28 meters, a well-preserved casualty from 1917. We found the stern section particularly intact, offering easy penetration for those comfortable with overhead environments. Schools of damselfish often hover around the superstructure, and look closely for scorpionfish camouflaged on the hull. It’s a solid intermediate dive for divers keen on history and straightforward wreck exploration.
