About B-24 Liberator Wreck
The B-24 Liberator Wreck is a WWII bomber on the seabed off Malta and is one of the island's signature technical wreck dives. It sits on a flat open seabed and is only open to permit-holding technical divers, with planning focused on gas, decompression, and precise boat logistics rather than reef navigation. It is a serious historical dive, not a recreational wreck site.
