Our exclusive event is designed to give divers a deeper understanding of its story and its treasures. We're thrilled to offer an experience that goes beyond the ordinary dive, with special attention to the historical context and natural beauty of the wreck."

The Zenobia wreck, known as the "Titanic of the Mediterranean," offers divers the chance to see a well-preserved shipwreck teeming with marine life. Since sinking in 1980, the Zenobia has become a haven for divers around the world, renowned for its accessibility and fascinating cargo.

The event will feature guided dives led by Pissouri Bay Divers' team of expert instructors, who will provide insights into the ship's history and help divers navigate the large ferry and its surroundings. This approach not only ensures safety but also enriches the diving experience with educational value.

Divers participating in the event will explore the cargo decks and the network of lorries and other vehicles still aboard the ferry. This unique aspect of the dive offers a glimpse into the moments before the ship's sinking and serves as a poignant reminder of the human stories connected with the Zenobia.

To enhance the experience, Pissouri Bay Divers has arranged for marine archaeologists to join some of the dives, offering live commentary on the ship’s history and the ecological impact of its sinking. This will provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the site.

The Zenobia event is suitable for divers of all levels, from beginners to advanced. Pissouri Bay Divers will provide all necessary equipment and support, ensuring that every participant can enjoy the dive safely and comfortably.
In addition to the dives, the event will include a series of talks and workshops where divers can learn more about underwater photography, shipwreck conservation, and the specific challenges and rewards of wreck diving.

This exclusive diving event is expected to attract diving enthusiasts from across Europe and beyond. It offers a unique opportunity to engage with the past and enjoy some of the most spectacular underwater scenes available today.
The event is scheduled to take place over a weekend, allowing for multiple dives and ample time for participants to explore the area and enjoy the local hospitality. Pissouri Bay is known for its beautiful beaches and vibrant community, making it the perfect setting for a diving holiday.
