  • Thanks to SCOTSAC Clyde Club (Fantastic club based in Gourock) we had a chance to dive on MV Akka. According to Diver "The Akka is definitely the best scenic wreck in the Clyde!" Big statement but they are right - wreck looks like oriental carpet, full of colours: mass of orange and white plumose anemonae totally covered in Brittle stars. Akka is a massive wreck - 5409-ton 434ft x 56ft, largest diveable wreck in the Firth of Clyde. It is intact right up to the ladders leading up to the bridge. All that is missing are the two uppermost levels of the bridge, which have been wire-swept away. That makes her confusing especially in poor visibility so please be careful. Still shallowest part at 16m(bow), stern deck at 24m it is easily accessible for most divers - and offers possibility of swimming through companionways and penetration (for trained wreck divers). Great wreck and fantastic dive again Big thank you to SCOTSAC Clyde for invitation and see you soon.
