This weekend, two vessels -- the MV Karwela and the MV Cominoland -- will be scuttled off the Maltese Island of Gozo. The sinking is part of the EU's "Niche Tourism for the Island of Gozo" project. Gozo already boasts several underwater attractions -- including the famous Blue Hole -- and EU officials hope the new wrecks will increase so-called niche tourism -- in the form of diving -- for the island even more. If you live in the area, the scuttling is scheduled to begin around 1000CEST. If you don't live in the area, then you can visit the wrecks after marine life begins to collect.
