IntermediateSS Inchkeith
A British cargo steamer that went down in 1955 and is now a working reef.
18–22metres
Built in 1923 and sunk in March 1955, the Inchkeith sits upright in around 18 to 22 metres and has spent seventy years turning into an artificial reef. The structure is broken enough to be interesting without inviting penetration, so it is an honest first wreck dive rather than an overhead environment.
