    Dive Site:
    HMS Scylla
    History:
    After being in service for over thirty years, Scylla returned to her homeport of Plymouth to begin her latest duty as an artificial diving reef - the first of its kind in the UK.
    Commissioned in 1970, HMS Scylla was the last frigate to be built in Plymouth, and the UK National Marine Aquarium, who has purchased the ship from the Royal Navy, is pleased to announce that she is finally returning home, where she will have a very different, but very important role.
    Scylla arrived in Plymouth on Saturday 8th November 2003. Once in Plymouth Sound, local tugs took over and towed the vessel to Devonport Royal Dockyard where essential conversion work began in November.
    After its smooth sinking, the Scylla now provides a fantastic opportunity to watch a fascinating new habitat on the seabed off Plymouth develop over the next few years. It will provide homes to a wealth of under sea wildlife. Cutting edge technology will enable the National Aquarium to show colonisation as it actually takes place. It will be the ultimate reality programme as characters move in and live out their lives.
    Scylla brings with her a fascinating history spanning the 1970's 'Cod Wars' and providing emergency relief teams to hurricane stricken Cayman Brac. From spring 2004, she will take a different course on the seabed off Whitsand Bay as an artificial reef which will provide a unique ecosystem for recreational divers and offer research potential for science and industry.

      That is so cool. Must be strange seeing it like this now. Yeah hopefully one day you will get to dive it. It took us years to finally get to dive it.

    Their are quite a few species of Eagle Ray without the spots. For example, the eagle rays in Canary Islands tend to be Bull Rays (Aetomylaeus bovinus) that don’t have the vivid spots like Spotted Eagle Rays. My guess they are one of these other species in the aqarium 🤷‍♂️
