      I live here in Malta, and it is by far my favourite wreck. Excellent job filming and storytelling ;)

      Nope. ROV / gazillion photos of her plus photogrammetry software to create VR experience would be enough.
      Edit: That way she would be accessible to everyone not just selected few with pockets deep enough to support diving hobby.

      @@DiveSAGA I really want to see the entry and exit. When I saw the conditions at the entry, I thought you would call the dive. That was intense! I really appreciate what you said about calling it go or no-go. For me that would have been a no-go for sure.

    Cool video I like the flow and narration. Haven't seen many videos from the Mediterranean. Water looks so clear but I'm used to filming in the Pacific Northwest.

    At 3:37 it is mentioned that the water temperature is 7 degrees Celsius or 44 degrees Fahrenheit, that is way too low and I assume that is a mistake? I don't think the water in Malta gets much colder then 14 degrees Celsius or 58 degrees Fahrenheit.

      That is a great remark. It's actually an editing mistake. I always triple check the episodes and still sometimes things slip by 😮‍💨 Thank you for the observation!

    Correction: diving then El Faroud does not require technical diving. Depth certificate(40m is better).
