SS Rosalie (Wreck)
Shallow shore wreck dive at SS Rosalie (Wreck), Weybourne
Weybourne Beach gives a shallow shore approach to a torpedoed North Norfolk wreck; low-tide slack water makes the entry and return far easier than an off-slack attempt.
About SS Rosalie (Wreck)
SS Rosalie (Wreck) is a shallow shore wreck off Weybourne Beach in North Norfolk. Torpedoed in 1915, it now sits just offshore in a strip of sand and shingle where the dive is shaped by the beach approach, low-tide slack water and the return through surf and current. When conditions line up, the wreck is an easy-to-enjoy local classic with plenty of structure and life across the hull, boilers and remains.
