Ghosts of the sea

Modern underwater photography can capture beautiful but eerie images of sunken vessels, transporting us to places we might not otherwise see. Many shipwrecks now provide a much-needed habitat for coral and sea life, while also serving as a tourist attraction for scuba divers. Others, sunk by war or accident, can only be reached by robotic cameras and their images give a ghostly glimpse of that silent world beneath the sea. Click or scroll as we explore the remains of these amazing sights, including the newly discovered Endurance.
