Among the biggest wrecks in Malta, it represents the experience divers visiting the island cannot miss.
Sunk in 1998 after a tragic explosion in La Valletta port (a memorial plaque can be seen at -25 metres) Um El Faroud oiltanker can be reached with a few minutes swim from the reef and coast.
The 115 metres-long wreck lies on the sea bottom at -40 metres of depth and at a -18 metres height, where usually a pack of barracudas guards the site.
The divers the most expert and with a familiarity with wrecks will have the chance to enter it and discover the hidden wonders of this tanker.
No doubt such an immersion, due to the perfect visibility and the magnificence of the wreck, will stick in the minds of all the divers visiting this actual giant.
