About Antonio Lorenzo
Antonio Lorenzo is a deep wreck off Saint-Leu, Réunion, sunk as an artificial reef and now used as a guided open-water dive. The wreck is all about current-aware exploration, clean buoyancy, and the life that gathers around the hull, so it suits experienced divers who want a serious profile rather than a casual reef stop. The site sits on a sandy seabed and is typically run with drift pickup and a careful ascent, which keeps the dive focused on control as much as on scenery.
