Dive-site story
Sunk in 2007 after striking the islet of Dado Pequeño outside Ibiza harbor, this massive roll-on/roll-off cargo vessel rests on its port side across a sandy seafloor. The scale of the intact hull is immense, offering striking views along the keel, massive propellers, and wheelhouse infrastructure. Given the bottom profile and ambient conditions, the site demands strict gas planning and buoyancy control.
Massive hull structure resting largely intact on its side
Huge stern propeller and rudder covered in encrusting sponges and tube worms
Schools of predatory pelagics hovering along the superstructure in the current
Atmospheric wheelhouse exterior and loading bay architecture
