Best for intermediate divers, 3-20m, shore entry, mild current.
The SS Probitas is a shipwreck located 50 metres off the Ionian Coast of Albania. Resting at depths between 3 and 20 metres, the vessel serves as an artificial reef. Divers can access the site from the shore, encountering mild currents and visibility ranging from 5 to 20 metres. The wreck structure allows for potential penetration, though this presents overhead environment and entanglement risks. Due to these hazards and the depth, the site is suited for intermediate divers with appropriate wreck experience and buoyancy control. Surface marker buoys are recommended during ascent to manage boat traffic in the area.
