New sites added to Submerged Heritage Map


We recently added twenty new sites to the Submerged Heritage Sites map on our website. Learn about a crashed Second World War plane, sunken silverton ore cars, and see photos of coral growth on ships that have been submerged for over a century.

Sites for the map were compiled by the Underwater Archaeological Society of BC.
