Syracusa
★★★★☆
(135)
SS Siracusa 1879-1897. 36m max depth. Built as the SS Bavaria, then renamed the SS Siracusa was a steamship carring a cargo of coal. When passing Newquay, she was caught up in a storm, subsequently wrecking off Towan Headland.
Expect to see pink sea fans, Devonshire cup corals, conger eels, lobsters and much larger fish life than in shallower waters.
