Haven Wreck

The largest wreck in the world

The supertanker Haven was launched in Cadiz during 1973: she was 335m-long, 52m-wide, with a maximum capacity of 230000 tons

On April 11, 1991, the Haven was anchored off Genova Multedo harbour: an explosion occourred in a tank and the Captain and four men of the crew died.After three days and a series of explosions, the Haven sunk on April 14. The wreck lies in perfect navigation trim on a sandy bottom at a depth of -85m, but the upper part of the structure reachs -32m: the funnel has been dismantled because it was dangerous for navigation.

The Haven is very popular among local scuba divers (the ship is by far the largest wreck in Mediterranean suitable for diving), but the dive is considered not easy. Authorities issued severe regulations for scuba diving.
