Why dive here
With 118+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales, ocean sunfish (mola mola) and orcas - Christenson Propeller offers some of Northumberland & Northeast's richest wreck diving.
The Christenson Propeller is exactly what it sounds like, a large prop standing upright on the seabed off the Northumberland coast. It’s a solid dive for those who enjoy smaller wreck artifacts rather than full hulks. We've seen crabs tucked into the blades and schools of pollock passing by. Best suited for experienced divers comfortable with colder water and potentially limited visibility.
