About Mount Olympus

Also known as The Toba 32, Nile Maru and finally The Mount Olympus. She was a huge steam driven merchant ship. She sank on 14 May 1942 while enroute to Alexandria and Durban when she was attacked by a German U 561 Submarine under the command of Captain Robert Bartels. She now rests in shallow waters of 15 meters and can be explored by all level divers. Great underwater landscapes.
