OF THE MED Kurt Storms explores the gigantic MT Haven, the remnants of a massive 334-metre-long oil tanker that lies in the depths of the Mediterranean off the coast of Italy Photographs by Kurt Storms
The Haven is the Mediterranean and Europe’s largest shipwreck in the sea and lies at a depth of 33m to 83m off the coast of Arenzano (Genoa). I have been diving on this beautiful and unique wreck for the last three years
The MT Haven was hit by a missile in the Persian Gulf during the Iran-Iraq War. It was subsequently extensively refitted in Singapore, and was then sold on to ship brokers, who leased it to Troodos Shipping.
