About this site
The RMS Slavonia was a Cunard ocean liner that ran aground off Flores in the Azores in 1909 after striking rocks near the island, making it one of the earlier notable liner losses in the region and reportedly among the first ships assisted by wireless distress signals. The wreck lies close to shore along the rocky Flores coastline, broken up by decades of Atlantic swell rather than resting intact. Given its shallow, exposed position, conditions are dictated largely by ocean surge, and diving it tends to depend heavily on calm weather windows. Details on current depth range and marine life at the site are not something to state with precision, but its historical identity as a wrecked early 20th century liner is well established.
