ROZA VLASI

Situated outside cape Sounion in the channel between Sounion and Makronisos. The dive took place on the 23rd of December 2018 with a total of 7 divers and boat captain Tasos Papapanos. On Christmas eve of 1959 and due to bad weather conditions the cargo on the vessel displaced resulting in the ship tilting which finally led to its sinking. The ship lies at a maximum depth of 62 meters. An excellent dive with a great group of people.

Archive photographs from newspapers after the accident kindly offered by Elias Drakos. Also, excellent photographs taken from the shipwreck during our dive by Caroline Negrin.
