Shallow WWII wreck off Proti Island with clear water.
Shallow WWII wreck off Proti Island with clear water.
A shallow World War II wreck off Proti Island, reached by boat and lying just below the surface in a quiet cove. The site is best for easy sightseeing, underwater photography, and relaxed exploration around the hull rather than deep profile work. Crystal-clear water and the island setting make it one of those spots where the wreck is the star, but the approach and the surrounding bay are part of the experience. Calm-water days suit it best because the shallow profile rewards tidy buoyancy and a slow pace.

Safety Notes
