A special group of divers recently visited the Zenobia shipwreck. They wanted to make it look festive for Christmas. This is an old tradition in Larnaca. It shows the strong link between the town and the sea. The event also helps make Cyprus a great place for diving. It also teaches people to care for the environment.
The divers started their trip from Larnaca marina. They went on a boat called Queen Zenobia. The divers took special ornaments with them. These ornaments were safe for the water. They would not harm the sea life. The divers went down into the clear water.
The Zenobia was a Swedish ship. It sank in 1980. Now, it is like a home for sea creatures. It is a popular place for divers. The ship is covered in coral. Many fish live there. The divers were very careful when decorating. They wanted to protect the sea life.
After they finished decorating, the divers took everything away. They made sure to leave no mess. This was important to them. They wanted to celebrate without hurting the ocean. After diving, the divers ate Christmas sweets on land. It was a nice end to the day.
This event is more than just pretty decorations. It helps people know about Larnaca's connection to the sea. It shows how important the ocean is. By decorating the wreck, organizers hope more people will come to dive. It also reminds everyone to be careful with the environment. Celebrations can be fun and good for nature.
