Constantin (Wreck)
Shallow wreck and artificial reef in Cala Mateua.
Shore-accessible wreck remains in Cala Mateua with Posidonia nearby and a straightforward profile for training-style dives.
About Constantin (Wreck)
Constantin is a shallow wreck site in Cala Mateua that now functions as an artificial reef. The structure is broken into low-relief remains over nearby Posidonia, so the dive feels more like an easy coastal exploration than a full intact wreck tour. It suits divers who want a simple route, good macro life, and an unhurried look at a historically sunk site. Shore access keeps the profile straightforward, but the broken remains call for careful buoyancy and attention to local access rules.
