Varese

★★★★★ (60)

The Italian merchant steamship “Varese“ sank in 1915 while transporting cargo from Trieste to Tunis. Because of bad weather, the captain decided to take refuge in the port of Pula. Heading towards the city, ship struck a mine which destroyed the prow, the ship sinking in the place where it is today.

Some nice Scorpion fishes, possible Conger eels and lobsters, schools of breams and other smaller fishes.
