SS Pericles 191 - British - WA

I have dived on the SS Pericles and took the first ever video footage of the beast. She lies 36m down in the crystal clear, cold water. She is positioned right where the Southern and Indian Oceans meet. The currents are quite treacherous and only very experienced divers should have a crack at this one. Very soon I will be releasing some footage of her on U-tube and will update this site when I do. There is not much left to see. The ocean down there has been described as the most vicious in the whole of Australia and I tend to agree. What I did recognize was the 4 masts, the crows nest, what appeared to be a boiler and one of the anchors. The wreck is fairly scattered and unrecognizable. Lots of rigging, broken bottles and chunks of steal. If you think you have the experience to dive it then I strongly recommend that you have one of two people up in your boat to help you in and out of the water. Also, I have only dived it on 28% nitrox mix. At least I get a decent dive as there is lots to see with it being so
