ONE MORE TIME - Cornwall & Devon
Okay, so "One More Time." You're diving a cabin cruiser here, not some huge battleship, but that’s precisely why we love it. Sunk back in '93, she's sat on the seabed long enough to really blend in. We’re talking about a wreck that feels like a natural reef, completely reclaimed by the sea. Dropping down, the first thing you notice is how compact she is, about 10 meters long. It’s perfect for a leisurely explore, no need for reels and complex navigation. We often find conger eels tucked into the smallest nooks, surprisingly big ones too, just their heads peeking out. The bow section is our favourite part; it’s usually swarming with juvenile pollack and bib, iridescent in the torchlight. You can easily spend a whole dive just circling her, watching the wrasse dart through the superstructure and spider crabs scuttling across the decking. It's a proper little ecosystem, and a truly relaxing dive after some of the more imposing wrecks in the area.
