This dive site marks the location of the merchant vessel EVDOKIA II, which tragically sank in March 1991. The incident occurred due to a collision with another vessel during dense fog approximately six miles (9.7 kilometers) off the coast of Chioggia. A significant factor contributing to the sinking was an over-reliance on modern navigational technology. This wreck presents an intriguing dive for experienced divers, offering a chance to explore a maritime history event. Visibility conditions can vary considerably depending on weather and sea state. Due to its location in a potentially busy shipping lane and the historical circumstances surrounding its sinking, caution is advised.
