Save it to come back later
Relitto Kastell Luanda is a shallow wreck on the west side of Ponza in Cala dell'Acqua, set up as an easy outside-view dive rather than a penetration site. The hull sits in clear view with the propeller and rudder still exposed, so the dive is more about reading the wreck shape than swimming through it. It suits try-dives and snorkelers, with dinghy access and normal boat awareness at the site. Plan for a simple shallow profile and keep buoyancy tight around the fittings.
