Location : "PELOPONISOS" Wreck (three locations avail.) Depth : 20 to 45m. Travel time: 40 min. Requirement: Advanced diver or higher certification A wreck dated from the 1930s' which sank on the north eastern side of Mykonos next to a reef in the middle of the sea. She was a Greek ship named "Peloponnisos" and has been cut into two pieces. The ship remains in good shape. It is a difficult dive, though, which requires favorable weather conditions due to the wrecks' location. The reef is vivid with lots of colorful fishes and good visibility. Dive Site # 4
