Tales of ancient ships crashing on the shore, or being attacked by pirates, only to lose their cargo and be sunk. The lighthouses which were established were not truly effective until the 1930’s so many ships met their peril before that time. The remains of ships are interesting in themselves, but the sea life surrounding the wrecks is amazing. These are the attractions which bring divers back time and again.
