UK wreck fishing and diving guides

Depth, history and what you might catch on popular UK wrecks, area by area. Exact GPS marks for over 20,000 wrecks are in the Wreckfinder app.

Anglesey and Llyn

The north Anglesey coast and the Skerries, where tide races and Irish Sea gales have claimed ships for centuries, including the Royal Charter.

Cornwall

From Fowey to Land's End, the waters around Falmouth Bay and the Lizard hold some of the busiest wreck fishing and diving in the UK, from the Manacles to deep wartime losses in 50 to 75 metres.

Dorset

From Lyme Regis to Poole, with Weymouth and Portland in the middle. Big wartime wrecks and liners lie in 25 to 50 metres and are fished hard for pollack, bream and conger.

Isle of Wight and the Solent

Wrecks south of the Isle of Wight lie on the approaches to Portsmouth and Southampton, many in deeper water out in the Channel.

Lancashire and Cumbria

Wrecks off Fleetwood and Morecambe Bay on the approaches to Liverpool.

Liverpool Bay and North Wales

The busy approaches to Liverpool hold steamers lost to collisions, fog and U-boats, many in 20 to 40 metres off the North Wales coast.

Plymouth and South East Cornwall

Plymouth Sound and Whitsand Bay hold two of Britain's best-known wreck dives, the James Eagan Layne and HMS Scylla, plus deeper marks offshore. Plymouth charter boats fish the area all year.

South Devon

From Exmouth round to Salcombe, Lyme Bay and Start Bay hold dozens of First World War steamers sunk by U-boats, many in 25 to 45 metres. Charter boats from Brixham, Torquay and Dartmouth fish them all year for pollack, conger, ling and bream.

Sussex

From Selsey to Rye. Shallow wrecks in 15 to 30 metres off Newhaven, Shoreham and Brighton, known for black bream in spring and early summer.
