Silver Rose
Why dive here
With 112+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue whales, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales and ocean sunfish (mola mola) - Silver Rose offers some of Scottish West Coast's richest wreck diving.
The *Silver Rose* is a pretty fresh wreck, sinking in early 2023, so you're seeing it in its early days of colonisation. It’s a fishing vessel, sitting upright at 20 metres, and already sponges and anemones are making a home on its structure. You can fin around the wheelhouse and deck, spotting small wrasse darting between the rigging. It’s a good one for those who enjoy watching a wreck evolve, and the shallower depth makes it an accessible dive for most certification levels, though current can be a factor here on the Scottish West Coast.
