This unnamed wreck, Canmore 102100, off the Scottish East Coast is one of our favourite mysteries. Descending into the often murky green, you’re met by a ghostly outline emerging from the gloom, its timbers softened by decades of immersion. We’ve spent many dives here, slowly piecing together its story just from the bones of the ship. You’ll weave through splintered frames and keel sections, imagining the bustling deck it once was. It’s an archaeological dive, sure, but it's also a surprisingly vibrant home for local critters. We often find velvet swimming crabs scuttling between the wreckage, their eyes like tiny red jewels, and occasionally a curious common seal will dart past, drawn by the activity. The real trick here is patience and a good torch, letting your eyes adjust to the low light. It suits divers who appreciate history, a bit of an enigma, and don’t mind a chillier, more challenging dive. Visibility can swing wildly; we always check local conditions before committing. When it’s good, the sense of discovery is immense.
