SARAH - Scottish East Coast & Borders
The *Sarah* is a shallow wreck, sitting at just 2m. It’s definitely one for the history buffs or perhaps a quick snorkel on a calm day. We've seen it described as "dangerous," which really just means navigation warnings are in place; for divers, it’s a broken-up hull, colonised by crabs and the occasional curious flatfish. Visibility can be a challenge here, but on a good day, it offers a glimpse into a piece of maritime history.
