ENJOY A WRECK DIVE ONLY FOR CERTIFIED DIVERS!!
BYRON I was a cargo ship carrying 11.000 tons of sugar. On 17 January 1985, at around 11.30a.m. all Crete was in the grip of unprecedented bad weather with heavy winds, heavy rains, floods, and cutoff communications. BYRON I strayed to the bottom, and it was cut in the middle and made salty water…sweet.
