LEF1 Wreck
The LEF1, built in 1955, is a 15.5 m small boat sunk in 2019 in the Larnaca Marine Protected Area off Voroklini, next to the Elpida. It lies at about 13 m on a reef running parallel to the shore, an easy site that is also marketed as the island's first artificial snorkelling reef. Divers can look inside the small hull, and small groupers shelter in it.
