SARA - Comino

SARA sits upright on the seabed off Comino, a relatively intact wreck reaching 52 metres. It’s a deep dive, making it best suited for technical divers comfortable with extended bottom times. We found schooling damselfish around the mast and the occasional moray eel peeking from deeper parts of the hull. Expect good visibility most days, though currents can pick up.
