    The SINAIA wreck, a large motor vessel that ran aground in 1976, sits at a shallow 9 metres, making it incredibly accessible for most divers. We love poking around her massive structure. The wreck itself, at over 160 metres long, is largely intact, providing plenty of interesting contours and nooks for exploration. You’ll find schools of fusiliers darting in and out of the rusted metal, and often a few lionfish lurking in the shadows. It’s a site that suits anyone looking for a relaxed dive with a bit of history, particularly good for photographers wanting to capture an atmospheric shot.
