Storico
Why dive here
With 213+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, great white sharks, hammerhead sharks and mobula rays (devil rays) - Storico offers some of Corsica's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 15-28°C, warmest July, August, September.
Storico is a dangerous wreck in Corsica, sitting at a max depth of 20m. We found it a decent penetration dive for those comfortable inside a decaying hull, with plenty of entry and exit points. Schools of damselfish flit through the interior, and we often spot conger eels tucked into shadowy corners. It’s an interesting dive for advanced open water divers looking for a straightforward wreck exploration.
