Why dive here
With 112+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales, ocean sunfish (mola mola) and orcas - BRAVE OF INVERNESS offers some of Scottish East Coast & Borders's richest wreck diving.
The Brave of Inverness lies in very shallow water, around two metres deep, making it accessible for almost any diver. We're talking about a wreck that went down in 1850, so expect history over intact structure. What’s left is scattered debris, a few ribs, and a lot of the seabed that’s slowly reclaimed it. It's a spot for history buffs who appreciate the bones of an old ship, rather than big marine encounters.
