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) - JEBBA offers some of Cornwall & Devon's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 10-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Jebba wreck, off the coast of Cornwall, offers a glimpse into maritime history, even at a shallow seven metres. This steamship ran aground in the fog back in 1907 and now lies mostly broken up, spread across the seabed. You'll navigate through scattered sections of hull and machinery, with parts of the bow and stern still recognisable, if heavily salvaged. It's a proper British wreck dive, meaning plenty of kelp, sea squirts and anemones have made their home here, with crabs often scuttling between the plates. It’s a great spot for a relaxed dive, particularly if you're into wreck photography and don't mind rummaging around a bit to piece together the ship's story.
