- Homenaje a los restos del naufragio del American Star en las costas de Fuerteventura, Islas Canarias. Actualmente (2021) y desde hace unos cuantos años ya no queda ningún resto visible.
The wreck of the SS American Star at Garcey Beach, Fuerteventura (Canary Islands - Spain). Actually (2021) the wreck is gone and there's nothing to see at that beach.

Real shame she never got where she was supposed to go, had such a promising future.
The sea condition at that beach is usually very dangerous with rip currents and giant waves. Many people died trying to reach the wreck. It's a serious deal.
ok
Thanks for uploading this. I get a lot of nostalgia from this... She is very dear to my heart
So surrealistic!! I am surprized it wasn't used for a James Bond film or on LOST. It is amazing what the sea can do to a 40,000 ton piece of steel.
In 2nd November 2005 only two days before the SS American Star collapsed is the last visit before the SS American Star collapsed.
Fantastic video. The motion picture shots (as opposed to the many still photos) make it, especially the missing stern, seem far more surreal - a massive decrepit shell, precariously perched and motionless against the beating waves.
Thanks
Gone but not forgotten
That looks so amazing to see half a ship sitting near the beach like that. Would have been great to go on board and check it out to see what it was like inside and very eary I imagine.
yea its a sad to see a beautiful ship go down, i also got the chance to touch america star's hull
Trevor Philips How?
I have a beautiful picture of the front of this wreck as my desktop. It's tragic what happened to this old beauty.
yea i really wish i could of been on it before it rusted away, to this day im pretty sure nothing is above water anymore, its all under water
tio, increible el video me he casi hasta emocionado al verlo. la verdad es que impresiona bastante la perspectiva de ver algo asi y de como con el paso de los años se deteriora. No queda nada visible ya? me gustaria ir a verlo, pero si no hay nada pues de nada valdra jajaja un saludo crack, muy bueno el video, las fotos y la musica
If i just had a welder and some free time.... naw nevermind.
Gracias amigo!!!
Swiming to it. The ocean is very wild in that beach.

@kilianyta Muchas gracias!!!
El barco ya despareció, actualmente no se ve nada. Una pena, impresionaba muchísimo.
Que mal, me hubiese dado curiosidad y miedo entrar al barco en ese estado.
There are also a electric motor and air tank from SS American Star they can be seen
About the first week of november 2005, just 3 days after my visit. It was the beggining of the end. A t the end of my video you can see pictures on november 4th where the inclination is very clear.
I’d like to add a disclaimer. In your description you mention the wreck being gone. However the wreck is still there, it just slipped away and capsized. If the sea level is very low and the waves are calm you are able to see a part of the wreck.
Well, "gone" may be inaccurate, I give you that, but I think it's the better way to explain people that no wreck or part of it it's today fully visible at the beach as they can see in my video. Seeing a shadow underwater it's worthless, in my opinion.
Hola Midi. Soy Raúl el del foro de Meteo.
El video genial, eres un crack.
Me gusta mucho.
Saludos.
what a great video,evildalek and your vids are brilliant but credit to them people who got on board and took pics.i would not have the guts to do that
ty for makeing this vid
It seems the ss United states may destined to the same fate, she been fully gutted for a complete Renovation but after a few years there are still no backers to fund the project, and she continues to rust away at her moorings.....
GRAN VIDEO DE UN MUY INTERESANTE TEMA EXELENTE HAY OTROS VIDEOS EN TH-cam ACERKA DE ESTE BARCO Y OTROS
Yes does anyone else know any other wrecks like this? great footage!
Great footage and music, I just added it to my favs
thank you ;)
The stern is visible only during low tide.
Yo no suelo encontrarme a diario un trasatlántico naufragado en una playa. Al menos como curiosidad, merecía la pena acercarse a verlo. Ya no está.
Well, I don't know. I heard that it was always risky even getting near the ship.
And about that ladder, it's always been there. It was not added after the accident.
shes gone now. god bless her.
The electric motor andthe air tank can be seen from July 2009 to present.
It was completely collapsed in April 2007 to break in half and fall into the sea the middle. The bow are slowly sinking from December 2007 to 2013.
well actually, the ship can only be seen in low tide now.
why did they not just drive the ship to port
Wow, what a beautifel ship when it was finished. Why they didn't fixed the hole when it was on the beach.
Pictures of the inside are not mine, but it were taken by people who dared to swim to the wreck. It was a really dangerous thing, few people died trying to reach the wreck. Today, the wreck is gone, look at my other video American Star 2007.
what a beautiful ship what a beautiful salon it must have been once but foolish to go on board a ship that rusty
The ship is wrecked in Canary Islands, Spain. Today there's no visible parts.
it use to go to Australia a lot in the 60's and 70's when it was owned by Chandris lines, its was called the "Australis" in those years
excellent, did you go in side the ship?
As far I Know, she was towed to be coverted in a floating Hotel, but never heard anything about a prison...
I see in 4th November 2005 the SS American Star collapsed.
cool, when did you do that? did you go on board?
yep i got to climb that old ladder to top of her
In 2013 the bow of the SS American Star has been gone
But just getting near the ship could cost you your life, cause of the giant waves 'round the ship and the sharp rocks. 8 people died before even reaching the ladder on the starboard side due to these risk factors.
November 2005.
Q musicas son las q habeis utlizado?
These are some old comments
The SS American Star completely sank in 2013.
I really don't know. I got them from a friend who lives in the Canary Islands.
when in 2005 did it start to collapse?
what year was this taken?
How did the people die? on board the wreck or swiming to it?
the ladder wasn't always there, it was added by the Spanish Army shortly after the ship got stuck on the beach. Check other photos of the ship if you don't believe me, do a google search for the SS Australis
dean r Actually the ladders were added to the ship for the tow to Thailand so that the towing crew could easily access the ship if something went wrong, which it did.
Matthew Cox It’s a bit useless replying to a 9 year old comment 😂
cool and you didn't go any further? guess she was too rusted?
I was wrong with the comment about the ladders they were added before it left for Thailand
What fool sails a ship into an Atlantic storm?
i saw video of this same ship in 2016 and ship all gone! Wtf.
can you get your friend to post the pics on here?
before it rusted away to nothing it was accessable
Why they died?
The ladders were added by the Spanish army after the ship got beached
thats the last year the ship sood up right, 2006 is was collapsing
@Midicloriano me hubiese gustado muchisimo haber pisado su cubierta, al fin y al cabo este barco sobrevivió a la segunda guerra mundial y a los peligrosisimos u-bots alemanes. ¿que paso con lo que quedaba ? lo hundieron?
WTH! Happened to the Stern Section? Were did it go?
in 1994 the Stern Section sank in 5 days same fate like the bow
Wow!
riccardod441 Stupid! The stern sank in 1996!
Ships Lover You don't need to be rude just because someone is wrong.
Ok
this ship is at australia
What? Did the second part of the ship sink?
+Epic-Meal Haha yes
When did it sink and how
The ship broke into 2 halves 48 hours upon hitting shore, and that was in 1994. The stern section collapsed into port side in 1996. The bow sank in 2013 and now can only be seen barely in low tide. Hope that helped :).
probably to dangerous to get on it
the wreck of the rms mulheim
your most welcome ;)
