Gibraltar
Camp Bay The dive site is situated in the south west of Gibraltar and provides an amazing opportunity to dive 5 wrecks in 2 dives. The first of the two dives will take you to "Batty's Barge" and the 482M Cable Layer which were purposely sunk in 1990 to form part of an artificial reef project and since then have become covered with marine life. With a maximum depth of 17m "Batty’s Barge" and the 482m make an ideal wreck dive for all levels of experience. Following the surface interval (lunch break) it’s back into the water to explore the three barges located in the north of the bay at a depth of 8-16m. The first two barges were believed to have been scuttled in the 1950's after bringing materials for the refurbishment of the jetty. The third barge was purposely sunk as part of the Camp Bay Artificial Reef Project. With an abundance of marine life on and around the wrecks taking a torch and a camera is a must.
Little Bay Just south of Camp Bay a strip of coastal defence leads to a small cove called Little Bay, best known for having been the site of a prisoner of war camp. This cove has a shingle and rocky slope which drops down to approximately 6m depth, then becomes a gently shelving sand bottom. Within the bay lay three wrecks. The 'MV Panico' a 17m long white motor cruiser at a depth of 18m. The 'Admiral Rooke' a 19m long wooden hulled former navy harbour patrol vessel sits at a depth of 20m. Most of the superstructure has rotted away but the hull remains intact. The final wreck is named the 'General Elliot' was purposely sunk in 12 m of water in 2002 and was a sister ship to the Admiral Rooke. All of the wrecks have an abundance of marine life on and around them due to the influence of the Atlantic Stream bringing with it large amounts of micro organisms. Visibility around the wrecks is usually around 10m but can get up 25m on a good day. JUST REMEMBER Gibraltar is part of the UK so don't forget your passport!
