Tug 2, Sliema

★★★★☆ (2,646)

Tug2 was a tugboat working in Grand Harbour of Valletta. Was scuttled in June 2013 to form an artificial reef and an attraction for divers. She was originally sunk on the sand parallel to the reef some 20m distance, but a storm moved her in October 2016, and the wreck is now crashed into the reef, bow first.

At this dive site you can see mediterranean sea bream, stingrays, moray eels, grouper, common octopus, cuttlefish, red starfish, damselfish and many other reef fishes.
