Best for advanced divers, 27-33m, boat entry, mild current.
The Cricket Wreck is a deep-water site located off the coast of Larnaca, Cyprus. Resting at depths between 27 and 33 metres, this wreck is strictly for advanced divers. The site features an overhead environment that requires disciplined buoyancy control and careful planning to manage entanglement risks. Visibility varies significantly, ranging from 10 to 30 metres. Access is exclusively by boat, and the site is suitable for night diving. Divers should monitor their depth closely, as the structure reaches 35 metres in some sections. Given the depth and potential for overhead hazards, thorough pre-dive planning is essential for all visitors.

Boat charter is your only access option, so book ahead and confirm the operator carries a surface marker buoy you can borrow if you do not own one. At 27 to 33 metres your bottom time is limited, so brief your team on the penetration plan before departure rather than on the surface.
