About

This unique adventure explores the maritime history of the many shipwrecks of the Giants Causeway coastline.

During the tour, you'll visit the historic wreck site of La Girona as well as the wartime wrecks of the HMS Drake, torpedoed by U-boat U79 in 1917. You'll also learn about the HMS Brisk and the S.S. Lugano - a 2,373ton cargo vessel which sank carrying cotton and steel.

You'll finish your tour with a visit to the past, exploring the intact wreck site of the SS Lochgarry - a troop vessel lost at sea during World War II, now laying upright off the coast of Rathlin.
