I’ve read a little about ’underwater ghost towns’ and think it would be an amazing experience providing there are still some remains. To scuba down an old street sounds awesome. Have any of you ever been to one? If so, which and how was it?

The picture posted by latitude adjustment is campo de flegrie, translates to fields of fire. it is in potsualy Italy, I know I did not spell it right. There is a web site for it , There is a very nice girl that runs the dive shop named Kair. It is about 30 min. from naples. It is a neat dive. We stayed at hotel tripurgola very near the shop. Centro Sub Campi Flegrei , thats how its spelled on my hat I bought

Greg, It was that picture that Kair posted here on DB that got me interested in diving there. We will be in the Med this fall and have booked a day with her.

There are also some Roman ruins in the area to see after your dive , We go to this part of Italy almost every year, My wife is from the area.
