Albanian law requires sea trips to be arranged via a local certified dive center
Six Shipwrecks - Ksamil is a boat-access wreck park made up of six former military ships sunk offshore for recreational diving. The wrecks are spread across more than one depth band, so guides usually match the site plan to certification and comfort rather than running a single fixed profile. The dive is more about the wreck structures and surrounding fish life than dramatic terrain, with the clearest appeal in the layered history and easy-to-read layout. It suits certified divers who want a guided boat dive instead of a shore entry.
Conservative baseline from public research. No community dives logged yet.
Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
16m - 30m
Depth Note
The wreck set spans multiple depth bands, from the high teens to about 30m, so the chosen hull depends on certification and sea conditions.
Best Season
June to September; May and October are workable shoulder months.
Typical Conditions
Summer brings the warmest water and the most consistent boat days. Shoulder months are quieter, while winter is cooler and more variable.
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Certified divers only. Keep neutral buoyancy around the hulls, use a torch to inspect structure, and stay aware of boat traffic during ascents and descents.
Access Restrictions
Arrange the dive through a local certified dive center; this is not a shore-access site. The deeper wrecks suit certified Open Water divers or above.
Legal Notes
Use the local certified dive-center route for sea trips and follow boat and port rules in Albanian waters.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Guides can match one of the six wrecks to the group's certification. The site rewards steady buoyancy, a torch for structure inspection, and comfort with a moderate-depth profile.
Freediving
Not a practical freedive target. The site is built around a boat-run wreck profile and works best with scuba gas planning rather than breath-hold attempts.
Snorkeling
Not a good snorkeling target because the wrecks sit too deep for meaningful surface viewing. Snorkelers will get more from the shallower Ksamil shoreline sites.
