Boat-only wreck off Limassol with moorings and lively reef fish.
Boat-only wreck off Limassol with moorings and lively reef fish.
Use a local skipper because the wreck is boat-only and current-sensitive.
Costandis is a Limassol wreck dive on a sunk trawler that now acts as an artificial reef. Local boats use permanent moorings, so the dive is tidy once you are on site, but the wreck can still feel current-sensitive. Stay outside the interior unless you have wreck training, and plan the dive as a guided boat circuit rather than a casual self-led drop. Expect dense reef life around the hull, with jacks, damselfish, parrotfish, resident grouper, morays, lionfish, and occasional turtles.

Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
23m - 25m
Depth Note
Public references place Costandis around 23-25m, with the top deck and hull references varying slightly by source.
Typical Conditions
Usually clear enough for a guided wreck circuit, with current around the moorings and an upright hull that makes orientation easy.
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Carry a DSMB, confirm the mooring plan with the skipper, watch for current and boat traffic, and keep interior exploration to wreck-qualified divers.
Access Restrictions
Boat-only access; interior sections are for wreck-trained divers only.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Best as a guided boat wreck circuit with good buoyancy and relaxed navigation; qualified wreck divers can use the interior, but the exterior is the main draw.
Freediving
Not a freedive target; the wreck is boat-only and sits too deep for casual breath-hold exploration.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel spot; it is a boat-only wreck dive rather than a surface-access site.
