Divers recently went underwater near Larnaca, Cyprus. It was for a special Christmas tradition. They decorated the large Zenobia ferry. This ship sank many years ago. The divers made the wreck a temporary underwater Christmas place.
This event is important for local divers. It shows Larnaca's connection to the sea. Organisers said they wanted to celebrate the sea. They also wanted to make Larnaca a better diving place. They wanted people to care more about the environment. The idea is to mix holiday fun with respect for nature.
The divers started from Larnaca marina. They got on a boat called the Queen Zenobia. This boat took them to the wreck. At the dive site, divers put on their gear. Then they went down to the seabed. The Zenobia ship is very deep. They carefully placed small decorations. These decorations were safe for the sea. They looked like Christmas but did not harm sea life.
A key part of this event is protecting the environment. After the dive, divers took all decorations away. This means no trash was left behind. This shows organisers want eco-friendly tourism. It also shows how to visit marine places well. The event was free for everyone. This helped more people join.
After diving, the divers met on land. They had a nice party. They ate Christmas sweets. They talked about their special dive. They also talked about the Zenobia ship. This meeting was a happy end to the day. It also made the community spirit stronger.
Decorating the Zenobia wreck is now a tradition. Many divers like it. It helps Larnaca be a famous diving spot. The event teaches people to protect the sea. It helps us enjoy the underwater world. It shows that fun celebrations can help nature.
