Turtle
On time good equipment nice friendly captain & informative but couldn’t see the wreck unfortunately but did see turtle
via Tripadvisor
Great trip!
Met at the boat, jumped on, told where water and coffee was. Staff were super friendly. Got to the wreck site and given our fins and mask, staff happily changed fins that were too small, then we jumped in. Had about an hour snorkeling. Visibility was pretty good and could just see wreck if we duck dived down. Could see a fair few fish from the surface. Other reviews moaning about not being able to see the wreck, it is a dive wreck so there is always that chance you won't get to see it, you are an add on to the scuba tour but it's 13€ for a nice boat trip, hire of equipment and a snorkel in the sea, can't expect much more for that! Staff were great and weren't just focussed on the scuba group they made us feel super welcome, couldn't fault it!

Big pool
Water was agreeable but there was no fish and we couldn’t see the wreck while snorkeling
Response from the operator: Hi,and thank you so much for your review We cant control weather conditions, but what we can do is to invite you to come again for free Bast regards zenobia team

Shorter than advertised, no refreshments and no real guidance.
We felt like an add on to the scuba trip, we got very little information about the wreck or what we might see, we didn’t get tea, coffee or water as advertised and we were back in 90 minutes rather than the two hours advertised. It was hard to see much of the wreck although bread was thrown in to encourage fish. Masks were poorly fitting so suggest taking your own if possible.

Larnaca Snorkeling Zenobia Wreck.
Had booked for the " Yellow Submarine Boat" tour on- line from Mumbai before my arrival in Larnaca..Departure was scheduled for 1000 hrs from Larnaca Marina Bay.I joined this cruise just to view the " ZENOBIA SHIPWRECK" off the coast of Larnaca.Departure was prompt at 10.00 hrs with Mr Costas,a local Cypriot , the boat's Captain at the wheels and also the guide with his assistant Mr Taher from Egypt handling the boats other functions.There were a few other tourists in the boat akin to a small private cruise.A wonderful cruise along Larnaca coastline with free drinks served during the cruise.Got a beautiful view of Larnaca coastline from the boat with the Mediterranean sea being a bit choppy, although externally seeming deceptively calm.We went upto Mckenzie Beach which is next to Larnaca airport and got to view a plane take -off from the airport runway.Finally we arrived at the " ZENOBIA SHIPWRECK SITE" and we all 8 tourists went to the semi submersible deck below the main deck of the " Yellow Submarine Boat ". Got to view the silhouette of the Zenobia lying on its side as also spotting numerous small fish but no large fish species.Capt Castro told us that the big fish live inside the ships wreck which would be visible to scuba divers.After viewing the wreck from the " Yellow Submarine " glass bottom windows we changed into swimwear and began snorkeling in the vicinity.Excellent but visibility was poor and sea rough. Just got to see a faint silhouette of the Zenobia.

Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Larnaca.
How much does Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck cost?
+
Prices start at $17 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Larnaca usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Larnaca is not rushed.
Is Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Larnaca, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Larnaca can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Larnaca and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Larnaca within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Larnaca?
+
On Outty we rank every Larnaca experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Troodos Mountains Villages: All Inclusive Food & Wine Day Tour, Cape Greco Blue Lagoon and Ayia Napa Tour, FAB Private Customized Tours Cyprus from Larnaca city. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Larnaca?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Larnaca?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+

Where is the meeting point for Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck?
+
The meeting point is at the exact pin location. The boat vessel is white and blue colors with our diving flags. The captain and crew will be waiting for you. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Larnaca Snorkelling Zenobia Wreck offered in?
+
