Why dive here
With 118+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales, ocean sunfish (mola mola) and orcas - TARGET SHIP F offers some of Northumberland & Northeast's richest wreck diving.
We’ve always had a soft spot for TARGET SHIP F. This isn't a deep dive, sitting at a comfortable nine metres, making it a solid choice for newer wreck divers or anyone looking for a relaxed exploration. Sunk back in 1971 after foundering at its moorings, the wreck itself is pretty broken up, but that just means there are more nooks and crannies for life to take hold. You’ll find plenty of crabs tucked into crevices and various fish darting amongst the twisted metal. It's an easy dive for shaking off the cobwebs or simply enjoying an hour in the North Sea.
