Discovery of Andrea Ferrara wreck
The “Andrea Ferrara” wreck, also known as the “Ghost Ship,” was discovered in 2019 by Félix, our manager, who received mysterious coordinates indicating the presence of an obstacle in the middle of the bay. He decided to investigate personally and, to his surprise, found a well-preserved wreck resting on the seabed. Since then, the Andrea Ferrara wreck has become a very popular attraction for both local divers and those visiting the island in search of unique underwater adventures.
It is a motor-sailboat approximately 20 meters in length, resting on a sandy seabed at a depth of around 38 meters. Its location in the center of the bay allows for a spectacular descent into the deep blue that envelops the diver in a magical atmosphere—perfect for lovers of deep diving.
The dive at the Ghost Ship
During the summer and autumn months, it’s common to encounter schools of triggerfish and large amberjacks roaming around the structure of the Andrea Ferrara, making the dive an even more memorable experience. Thanks to the usually excellent visibility and the sandy surroundings that highlight the silhouette of the wreck, along with the large number of fish around it, the ghost ship leaves an impression, always.
We conduct the dive to the Andrea Ferrara exclusively with recreational divers who have experience in deep diving and the corresponding certification, always staying within no-decompression limits. As a result, we make the most of the bottom time by circling the wreck in an upward spiral. We then carry out an extended safety stop to increase safety. Additionally, we carry a stage tank that allows for easy management in case of failures or problems during the dive. Divers trained in decompression diving can also carry out this type of dive on the wreck.
The Andrea Ferrara is a must-do dive for those looking for something different and exciting — a perfect combination of history, marine life, and deep-sea thrill in the heart of the bay.
