The coast of California is literally littered with shipwrecks.  From the Spanish colonial era to modern day warships, possibilities abound for the avid wreck hunter.  From recreational through technical depths, this area has no shortage of potential targets and has been widely overlooked as a haven for shipwreck divers.  Some of the lesser known and some new target images will be posted soon, but for now here are some of the wrecks that active divers in the area should recognize.  In Depth had begun work in the area with Taopi Tek and hopes to get back to the area in the future to continue to discover new and exciting potential dive sites.

 

 

Steve Donathan owned Taopi Tek of San Diego, CA and was without a doubt the area's most avid wreck hunter / explorer.  Steve discovered a large number of sites off the coast of San Diego.  Sadly, Steve lost his life in a diving accident in June 2005.

Note the square holes along the sides and the framework at the left side of the image. This is a kelp cutting arm.
