Why dive here
With 112+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales, ocean sunfish (mola mola) and orcas - Wreck of Unnamed Shipwreck - Canmore 96647 offers some of Scottish East Coast & Borders's richest wreck diving.
Let's be upfront: "Unnamed Shipwreck" doesn't exactly sing, does it? But don't let the name fool you. This is a proper East Coast wreck dive, perfect for those who appreciate the grit and history of the North Sea. We’re talking about a site that often feels like a secret, less trafficked than some of the Scapa Flow giants, but with its own quiet drama. What you'll find here is a solid, broken-up wreck, scattered across the seabed rather than standing proud. That means penetration is out, but there’s still plenty to explore. We love drifting along the debris field, imagining the ship in its prime. Keep an eye out for the resident crabs – they’re everywhere, scuttling amongst the metal plates and sometimes even giving a defensive pinch if you get too close. The visibility can be variable, sometimes a silty green, other times a surprisingly clear emerald, especially on an incoming tide. It’s a dive for those comfortable in colder water, happy with a little current, and who get a kick out of discovering history piece by piece. Best for experienced divers looking for something a bit different.
Safety Notes
