Zenobia Wreck Diving Site
About
The MS Zenobia wreck diver’s haven off the coast of Larnaca, Cyprus, is a floating testament to maritime history and deep‑sea adventure. Capsized in June 1980 near Larnaca Bay, the 172‑metre ferry now rests on its port side at a depth of roughly 42 meters (138 feet). Its well‑preserved hull and intricate interior layout make it one of the world’s most photographed wrecks and a top‑ten diving destination according to several independent guides. Divers arrive at the site two minutes from the beach, where the water is crystal clear and the marine life is vibrant. The wreck offers a graded dive experience: a short 12‑meter approach to the starboard side is suitable for newly qualified or intermediate divers, while the upper and lower decks, along with the engine room, present a challenge for those with an advanced rating or a special affinity for wreck navigation. The combination of rich history, varied technical difficulty, and the lively Mediterranean ecosystem ensures the Zenobia remains a must‑see for any adventure diver visiting Cyprus. Whether you are a seasoned wreck diver or a curious marine enthusiast, the Zenobia offers an unforgettable underwater journey beneath the sunlit waters of the Eastern Mediterranean.
