Wreck 10 - Comino

We've spent some time exploring the Comino wrecks, and Wreck 10 offers a solid dive, particularly if you appreciate the way the sea reclaims things. It's a fishing boat, fairly intact, resting upright on the seabed. You can poke around the wheelhouse and deck, which are now completely covered in sponges and hydroids. Keep an eye out for moray eels tucked into the darker crevices and the usual Mediterranean suspects like octopus and damselfish flitting around. It’s a comfortable dive for anyone with a bit of wreck experience, not too deep and generally sheltered from strong currents.
