LAGAN - Northumberland & Northeast

The Lagan, sitting at 33 metres, is a proper North Sea wreck. We always find it a bit moody, often shrouded in that classic green North East visibility, which only adds to its atmosphere. Her bows point north, and she’s largely intact, giving you a real sense of her structure – the stern is quite broken, but you can still make out the engine room area. Look for the resident conger eels tucked into any available crevice, and we’ve seen some decent-sized cod patrolling the deeper sections. It’s a good dive for those with experience in UK waters, comfortable with deeper wreck penetration, and keen to explore a piece of maritime history.
