- The PLM 27 A french vessel sunk by German U-boats, the PLM 27 offers over 400′ of diving pleasure
- The SS Saganaga was another ship who fell victim to German U-boat attacks. This dive spot offers a mysterious twist… you’ll have to check it out yourself to find out what it is!
- The SS Lord Strathcona Resting deeper on the ocean floor then the other wrecks, this wreck has remained out of reach of passing icebergs and flowing currents. This has made it one of the best-preserved wrecks around Bell Island
