Baron Gautsch
Probably the most famous wreck here in the northern Adriatic Sea. Unfortunately, the sinking is a sad story with many victims. The wreck lies upright at a depth of 40m and is even after 100 years very well preserved. With its 90m length and 12m width one dive is not enough to see all its beauty. The upper deck is flooded with light, making the dive unforgeable. This wreck is a must see when you are around here. More information: Wikipedia Baron Gautsch
