Wreck of Louis Felicie - Scottish West Coast

The Louis Felicie is pure Scottish wreck diving, and we absolutely love it. Dropping onto her bow, you immediately feel the history, the cold water clinging to the steel. The wreck lies on her side, offering great penetration opportunities through what was once the engine room, shafts of ambient light cutting through the gloom. Keep an eye out for nudibranchs tucked into crevices and the resident wrasse patrolling the deck plates. This site suits divers who appreciate a proper historical wreck, and who don’t mind a bit of a current, which can pick up, especially on a spring tide. We always plan our dive for slack water, making the exploration so much more enjoyable, letting you take your time examining the details. You’ll feel the chill, for sure, but the dive is always worth it.
