Odysseus was shipwrecked once during his journey home in Homer's "Odyssey." After leaving the island of Ogygia, where he was held captive by Calypso, his ship was destroyed by a storm sent by Poseidon. While he faced numerous challenges and obstacles, including encounters with monsters and divine beings, the primary shipwreck occurs in Book 9, when he recounts his adventures to the Phaeacians.
