MERCHANT SHIPWRECK TARANTO, DUBROVNIK
depth: 23-55 meters
location is suitable only for advanced divers.
The ship Taranto sank close to Dubrovnik in 1943. It was destroyed by a mine left by the Allies. Therefore scattered cargo and motor parts can be found around the well-preserved wreck. The boat itself was halfed, its stern partly sank into the sandy seabed, while the bow lies on an underwater cliff at a 45 degree angle. An added attraction to the location are the 2 groupers and several schools of fish that made the shipwreck their home.

Hi, back from the site there's no record of such ship named taranto, but instead you will find under Totonno or tottono with same story. I have compiled this info and can send it if interested. So does anyone have further information about her.
