Junkers Ju-52 (Wreck)
★★★★★
(171)
A few hundred meters from the port of Isola delle Femmine is the wreckage of the German Junkers 52 aircraft. It was shot down in April 1943, and now sits at 46 meters deep on a sandy bottom.
The wreck is a marine oasis: large conger eels, moray eels, large groupers, croakers, colorful sponges, and yellow gorgonians.
