About The Castle Reagh

Also known as The Firth Fisher. The Castle Reagh was an old cargo Steamer vessel which was used to transport coal on the South Coast. She sank due to unknown reasons and was reported lost on 25 February 1925. Today she remains a beautiful dive and rests at a depth of 37 meters where she is now home to a wide variety of corals and abundant marine life. Very scenic dive.
