I explored the Graviera Reef with its numerous caves and the area in front of the diving school, including the wreck of the cargo ship Marianna at 18 meters depth. In June 2021, I completed the &#8216;Open Water Advanced course&#8217; and was able to circle around the Marianna shipwreck in its entirety (about 30 meters to the seabed) and partially dive through it. My most exciting diving experience so far! The diving instructor tells the amusing story of the ship wreck before the descent.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/azalas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/44d9b0a9_450.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/azalas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/5258d4cb_450.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/azalas.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/be6bf3fe_450.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><big>I<\/big>n approximately 30 meters of depth off Naxos lies the wreck of a Beaufighter, a British aircraft from World War II.
