- In today's video I'm taking you to one of the most famous Historical wrecks in Victoria if not all of Australia, the Loch Ard Wreck. Located in the 12 Apostles Marine Park it is a spectacular boat ride to get there.
I'll show you where to launch, how to get there, the dive profile, what weather conditions you need and if your interested the lights and settings I used to film it with my Gopro Hero 11.
The Loch Ard was launched in Scotland in 1873. She was a three mast steel clipper with a length of 80m
On 1st March 1878 she left Gravesend, Kent bound for Melbourne. On board where a total of 54 people including crew and passengers. Bad weather and heavy fog was encountered as they sailed along the Victorian coast towards Melbourne. In the early hours of the 1st June 1878 she hit Mutton Bird Island, sinking within 10 to 15mins.
The story of tragedy and survival is captivating and if you want to know more then visit the Flagstaff Hill Maritime Museum in Warrnambool.
