Site details

The Satil (INS Sufa) is a former Israeli Navy Saar-class missile boat scuttled off Eilat in 1994 as an artificial reef, lying only about 50 m offshore with the bow at roughly 18 m, the stern at 21 m and a maximum depth near 24 m. The upper structure suits beginner-to-intermediate divers while the deeper sections call for more experience. The wreck attracts schooling sea bass, barracuda, lionfish and rays.
