Historic wreck dive off Porto Cesareo.
Historic wreck dive off Porto Cesareo.
Relitto Neuralia is a boat-access wreck off Torre Inserraglio in the Porto Cesareo area, resting on sand as a historic square-profile dive rather than an ultradeep technical target. The wreck is substantial but broken up enough to remain interesting, with military relics, sponges, and reef life tucked around the structure. It is a dive for experienced wreck divers who want a clear historical story, a deliberate pace, and a real wreck environment instead of a simple reef.
