Deep WWII wreck dive off Sardinia.
LT221 is a deep Sardinian wreck dive with a split tug hull, sandy bottom, and a technical profile that rewards slow, well-planned exploration. It suits experienced divers who want a historic wreck, anthias and bream around the structure, and the option to work the bow and stern without turning the dive into a casual sightseeing stop. The site is best approached as a serious boat wreck with disciplined buoyancy, a clear plan, and respect for the overhead sections.
