About this site
SS Stavronikita Wreck is a 111-metre (365-foot) shipwreck dived at depths from 21 to 43 metres (70 to 140 feet). The bow sits at 21 metres (70 feet), the propeller lies deeper at 43 metres (140 feet), and the top of the mast comes up to 5 metres (15 feet) below the surface.
The ship caught fire during its working life, and the crew painted an SOS on its side that a passing aircraft spotted, which led to the rescue of the remaining survivors.
Divers can explore a vast cargo hold, and the main mast is full of life. The wreck is graded advanced.
