About this site
The Queen Olga is a Greek destroyer wreck at Lakki port on the island of Leros, once called the pride of the Greek fleet. She was built in Glasgow and fought in hundreds of military campaigns from the Adriatic to the Indian Ocean, and at the start of the Greek-Italian war she was the fleet's most sophisticated warship. German fighter planes bombed her on 26 September 1943, killing the captain and 72 crew, and the holes in the funnels from the attack can still be seen.
The wreck lies in the port, so visibility is medium at 5 to 10 metres. It is among the wrecks listed as recommended for organised, guided dives in Greece.
