For the wreck enthusiast, there’s an abundance of sites to delight!  From wrecks scuttled for recreational divers between 16-40m to historic wrecks between 55-110+m for the Technical Diver. Malta has one of the largest concentrations of Historic Wrecks in the Mediterranean So what are you waiting for?
