200-Year-Old Shipwreck Found Off Spanish Coast

-

A 200-year-old shipwreck was found this month in the waters off Spain’s southeast coast.

Scuba diver Isaac Guerrero found the 70-meter/230-foot-long steamship about 8 meters/26 feet below the surface. It appeared to have a hole in its stern, thought by some to be from a cannon ball.

The shipwreck wasn’t on any government records.

Recent storms could have shifted the sands below the waves, which could be why the wreck was only found this month.
