Depth is the range from the top of the site to its usual maximum; "recommended cert" is the mainstream-agency level operators usually ask for, not a legal rule. Currents and visibility change daily — treat everything here as planning ranges.

The tug Rozi worked Mediterranean harbors for decades before being sunk off Cirkewwa in the early 1990s — originally as an attraction for a tourist submarine, a career twist that left her perfectly staged for divers. Minus her engine and propeller but otherwise whole, she sits upright with wheelhouse, bollards and railings all in place, small enough to circle twice in a dive and photogenic from every angle. Clouds of chromis shimmer over the deck, moray eels and groupers hold the darker corners, and the surrounding sand throws light back like a studio floor.

The moment you come for: Complete, compact tug, photogenic wheelhouse, reliable Cirkewwa visibility

Topography: An intact tugboat upright on sand at about 34–36 m below Cirkewwa's reef

Entry: Shore entry at Cirkewwa with a guided swim to the wreck, or by boat; frequently dived back-to-back with the P29.

This site is a charted wreck MV Rozi — Harbor tugboat, sunk 1992. Full wreck history and dive guide →

Know before you splash

Hazards: Depth is the main consideration; the open hold and doorways tempt untrained penetration.

Conservation: Part of Cirkewwa's protected diving area — look and photograph only.

Nitrox: Worth it here — profiles sit in the range where enriched air meaningfully extends no-stop time (with the training to use it).
