    The Three Stars wreck is an interesting one for its story alone. This old steamship, built in 1943, caught fire in the boiler room on a passage from Lebanon to Libya before sinking here in 1967. Now, sitting upright in just three metres of water, it's easily accessible and a unique spot. You can explore the deck and superstructure, which means you’ll see plenty of the ship’s original features. Schools of juvenile fish often hover around the metal, and we’ve seen moray eels peeking from beneath plates. It's an excellent site for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed, shallow dive.
