About Le Sirius Wreck

The Le Sirius was classified as a 5th grade British semi rigged Frigate. She sank about 100 years ago and was first discovered in 1964, fairly intact and resting in a depth of 21 meters. In 1986, due to illegal explosive use, the wreck was partially damaged. Some of the artifacts that was found on this wreck includes a very rare French regiment uniform button, coins, a sword hilt and pieces of an octant. She can be accessed by all level divers. Today resting in a silty bottom, surrounded by corals and teeming with marine life. Excellent wreck dive with great history and much to see and explore. Due to the silty bottom, this wreck dive may have limited visibility.
