Why dive here
With 176+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales and ocean sunfish (mola mola) - ENECURI offers some of Cornwall & Devon's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 10-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
The **ENECURI** wreck, formerly the *Maristow*, lies at a manageable 14 metres, making it a good choice for newer wreck divers in Cornwall. Sunk in 1900, this steamship is a substantial structure, 87.8 metres long, with two boilers and its triple expansion engine still identifiable. It’s a popular spot for local divers because of its accessibility and the way the wreck has become home to a range of fish and crustaceans. You'll often find conger eels tucked into crevices, and colourful jewel anemones coating the metalwork. Dive this one on a calm day; the visibility can be excellent, really bringing the scale of the wreck into focus.
