Greek freighter that sank in 1937 while looking for shelter during a storm near land. Its cargo was composed of cereals and vegetables. Although quite damaged, it serves as a shelter to species like Mullets and Cuttlefish.
The crew was composed of 24 members but only 17 got to shore swimming. Due to its location the freighter is pretty damaged, and almost disintegrated but you can still see much of the base of the hull, bow and stern.
The surrounding area of the wreck is very rocky so many species seek shelter there.
