Laboe Wreck
The Laboe is a 21.5 m former German cruise ship built in 1940 (Rendsburg), brought to Cyprus in 2006 as a dive liveaboard and sunk in 2014 off Paphos as part of the artificial-reef and marine-park project. Visit Cyprus lists her at 27 m off Geroskipou and Cydive at 26 m, about 15 minutes from the harbour. Easy penetration through the saloon and bridge with the windows removed; groupers, barracuda and bream. She lies in a marine-park area where fishing is banned. The exact position is not published, so this point near the Moulia area is only a placeholder.
