Why dive here
With 118+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales, ocean sunfish (mola mola) and orcas - SONS OF THE SEA offers some of Northumberland & Northeast's richest wreck diving.
The *Sons of the Sea* is a well-broken wreck, lying at an accessible 11 metres. We find it's more of a scatter than a coherent vessel, with ribs and plating spread across the seabed, creating plenty of nooks for crabs and lobsters. It's an easy dive, good for newer divers keen to explore their first wreck environment, or for photographers looking for a shallow subject. Expect to see plenty of local fish sheltering in the wreckage.
