The NR-1, a U.S. Navy nuclear sub, can dive to 800 meters, and is available for $8,000 a day. That's around a half mile depth, which is pretty deep. It's mentioned in the topic article. Not sure when this particular link originated, but it's pretty old, and still online.
Plumbing The Depths With Your Own Nuclear Sub
This summer, the NR-1 will be working in the Mediterranean and Black Seas, looking for deep-water wrecks that may be better preserved than any yet found in the shallow waters usually explored by marine archeologists.

If the heavily traveled route between Italy and N. Africa actually went over this 'treacherous reef' that is near the surface, I'd expect to find a lot more ships than five.

Sailors aren't stupid and don't put their ships as risk unnecesarily. My guess is that these ships probably strayed over the reef by accident or were driven by storms.
