Probably one of the most importance wreck sites in the Falklands due to the fact that at least 5 ships have been wrecked around this exposed rock. It is now a protected area and you need permission from the Receiver of Wrecks to dive on this site. One of the wrecks that is described here is that of the Oravia which struck the rock in fine weather but thankfully without the loss of one life. |
