In February 1999, after a damage to the rudder, the cargo ship “Vera” was stranded on Lefteris reef. After a while the ship broke in half and its two parts can be found at depths of 16-25 meters.

The reef is accessed only by boat. There are many currents in the area and it is recommended to have people on board in case the weather changes.

If there are friends with you who will not dive they can swim with their mask, as the reef, even in the shallows, offers very beautiful scenery.

The shipwreck is located southwards of the lighthouse. As the visibility in the area is generally good, you will be able to see it even with a mask from the surface. Dive heading south after completing the buddy check.

At 20 to 25 meters south of the lighthouse there is a large plateau, both parts of “Vera” are located there. Like in all shipwrecks, there are metal parts that are sharp and rusty. The use of full body wetsuit and gloves is recommended, especially if you are having problems with your buoyancy. When it is time to return, be sure to make the necessary stops, especially after a deeper dive in another part of the reef.
