SILVERCLYDE - Cabo de Palos

The Silverclyde, a yacht that went down in 1975, rests at a solid 60 metres, making this one for the technical crowd. We’ve found her upright and largely intact, a real bonus for exploration. You can fin past the bridge, peer into the cabins, and imagine her final voyage. Despite the depth, the Mediterranean light often filters down, revealing schools of barracuda circling the mast and moray eels peeking from every nook. It’s a peaceful dive, a chance to really connect with a piece of history on the seabed, best enjoyed on a calm day when the surface doesn’t add extra chop to your deco.
