SEABREEZE - Scottish East Coast & Borders
The Seabreeze, a small cabin cruiser, rests at 25 metres, sunk back in ‘82 after a rogue wave swamped her. She’s only about 5.5 metres long, making for a compact dive, but what she lacks in size she makes up for in character. We often find her swarming with small cod and inquisitive wrasse, darting in and out of the cabin structure. It's a proper little ‘mini-wreck’ experience, good for divers looking for a straightforward, undemanding exploration of a piece of local history, rather than a deep, sprawling wreck penetration.
