About this dive site

This dive site presents a unique shipwreck located in the Cantabrian Sea, just under 40 meters deep. The vessel remains largely intact, preserving its original shape. It rests on a sandy seabed at approximately 36 meters. The wreck is split in two and both halves are supported by the starboard side. Because it's the only accident within this area of sand, it has become a thriving habitat for a diverse array of marine life, including moonfish, conger eels, flounders, crabs, lobsters, octopuses, squid, blennies, gorgonians, bream, groupers, lipotes batrachus (butterfish), sculpin, and even occasionally young sperm whales. The area is known for its abundant marine biodiversity.
