MV.Xlendi was sunken deliberately as an attraction for scuba diving around 7-8years ago.Before becoming a wreck
it served as a passenger and a car ship between the islands of Malta ang Gozo.Feeling the need for new ships as well the need
of wreck for improving the sites the sunk it.Since the south of Gozo lacked from good diving spots the idea was to improve Xatt l-ahmar so that
when strong north west winds hits there will still be some good diving.

The idea was to sink it at 30-35 metres to be in access of the average diver.Due
to strong winds on the day of the sinking the wreck fell to 35-42 metres and as well headfirst as seen in the pictures.So this site is more for the experinced
diver since at 40 metres the no deco times is pushed to the limits.Good lights are recommended and penetration to be done only with instructor or with experienced
divers who are faniliar with tha area.
