U1277 U-boat
Located in: European Coast >> Portugal >> Oporto
Famous German submarine that sunk off the Oporto coast at the end of the World War II. The sub rests since 1945 at 31m (102ft) on a sandy seabed, with the stern completely silted up and lain about 45 degrees on her portside. The bow is missing, existing only the four torpedoes launch tubes, as well as the conning tower where all anti-aircraft guns were.
A great dive, not only beacause you face a uboat. You can actually see the shape of it and will find plenty of marine life. Date posted: 20-Apr-2006 00:58 by: Rodrigo Neiva Santos who thought that:
