About Wreck of The White Star

The Wreck of The White Star is a relatively recent addition to the underwater world, having sunk on February 18th, 2007. The cause of this was shoddy repair work on this ex-Russian commercial fishing vessel. Now, this wreck rests 14 meters beneath the surface, just a short ten-minute journey from Paphos harbour. Divers exploring this site can expect a maximum depth of around 18 meters. The approximate visibility ranges from 7.5 meters up to a maximum of 22.5 meters, providing ample opportunity for divers to explore and experience this recent wreck. Given its relatively shallow depth and close proximity to the harbour, it's an accessible dive site for a wide range of diving experience levels.
