October 2001 On my first visit I thought the viz' was super after diving in the UK, 30-35 Metres, but was told that it was not good as normal. Came back 2 days later, Wow! what a difference, you could follow the mooring line down to see the starboard side of the ship! bottomed out at just under 39 Metres, I could see beyond both ends of this R.O.R.O. Ferry, absoulutely incredible viz! so much to see, Artic' Lorries still on deck,hanging by their chains(possibly not by now?) also upright on the seabed. not recommended for penetration unless Very Experienced in wreck diving as there have been several diver deaths over the past years! Shoals of Barracuda patrolling the wreck & I was lucky to see the 3 of the resident Very Large Napolean Wrasse! in all probably the best Wreck Dive I'd done, until I dived the Million Hope, in Egypt!

May 2005 If you going to dive in Pafos,try Coralbay Divers.Billy Kerr in the owner & is a great guy to dive with,nothing was to much trouble & he knows all the sites.I have used Cydive but didn't like their style.Felt like a diving production line.Best dive was the Zenobia,the scale is amazing & is a must dive.Loads to do in Paphos,good food & the locals are very friendly.
