Scuba diver prays Costa Concordia will sink: ‘manna from heaven’
There’s an Italian scuba diver from the island of Giglio, where the partially submerged Costa Concordia lies, who is praying the cruise liner will sink. Why? Because Aldo Baffigi believes if it sinks it will attract scuba divers from the world over.

Winter diving in Manly – Shelly Beach

And up until a few years ago, Khasab was not accessible by land at all.
