Advice for diving Messerschmitt Bf 109 in Greece
This is site is only reachable by boat and requires Advanced level certification or Deep diving. It is not advised for very beginners because conditions can be tricky on some days.
There is usually a light current at the start and the end of the summer season due to temperature changes, but some days can be quite strong on the surface.
Sea life is not so rich but you can see most of the times a moray eel and a grouper. At temperatures around 21-23 you can also see some nudibrach. Also May to July you can encounter small packs of Amber Jacks.
The wreck is in a good condition and the only thing missing from it is the tail of the aircraft. You can even find a pack of ammunition next to the machine gun.
Maximum depth is 26-27 meters around the area of the wreck.
