Zenobia Wreck
Ναυάγιο Ζηνοβία
A Swedish roll-on/roll-off ferry that sank in 1980, 172 metres long and counted among the world's top ten wreck dives.
The Zenobia capsized and sank just outside Larnaca Port on its maiden voyage. More than a hundred lorries remained on its decks and the wreck has become an artificial reef, home to grouper, barracuda and sea turtles. The wreck lies about 1.5 km offshore at depths of 17 to 42 metres, suitable for open-water to advanced divers. Several dive centres in Larnaca offer boat packages for two dives at roughly EUR 100 to 150. Non-divers can take a glass-bottom boat to view the wreck from above.
