Best places for diving into underwater ruins

I am sure you like diving, who wouldn’t? More and more people are very fond of diving in all its forms. It is actually an amazing unique experience: you are alone with the water creatures in the middle of the ocean.

A bad movement could be very dangerous for you. Try to remember the path and try to stay away from the shark infested waters. There are some dangers for sure, but even on the Earth are a lot of risks you must take.

The professional and even the hobby divers know already the traditional diving destinations around the world: tropical clear waters with plenty of interestig plants and animals. To mention just a few : The Caribbean, Maldive and other islands in the Indian Ocean; Tahiti and New Zealand, as other many islands of the Pacific Ocean etc.

But if you really wanna feel like an explorer, you must to try harder. What about underwater ruins? Does it appeal to you? Oh yes, I am sure. The marine archeology was born through the melting of these very different things: archeology and diving. There are already some professionals and experts in this field, but the most of the spectacular discovers have been made by hobby divers! Which puts you in the best position!

The best destination for underwater ruins are in my opinions the following:

1. Cleopatra’s Palace by Alexandria, Egypt.

Cleopatra's palace must have been very luxury

You must be aware that the ancient port of Alexandria lies sunken on the bottom of the Mediteranean Sea. Some divers identified already the Cleopatra’s Palace among all these ruins! It was sunken 16 centuries ago, but you may not take any piece from there, as the Egyptian government plans the opening of an impressive underwater museum! Man, it would be nice, I can’t wait for it.

2.Port Royal, Jamaica

The only one sunken city of the new World: Port Royal in Jamaica

This is the only one sunken city from the New World. You can simply admire these ruins and imagine the daily life from an English colony from the XVIIth century. The city has simply frozen when a terrible earthquake destroyed it. The underwater ruins occupies more than 10 acres, at heights reaching 15 meters. You have a lot of things to do and to discover here.

3. Yonaguni Jima

A mistery to solve: who build the ruins from Yonaguni?

Only 100 km away from the Taiwanese coast a hobby diver discovered some impressive ruins, which are 8000 years ago. Specialists think that these ruins are an argument for the existence of the legendary continent Mu, disappeared at the dawn of the mankind. The architecture and construction are amazingly similar to those from the Inca civilizations. Visit it and simply tell your impression!
