Sand
l'Eldon
Maritime Zone, France
The British cargo ship Eildon sank on May 4, 1915, in the Maritime Zone north-east of the Isle of Molène in the Mer d'Iroise. The ship hit a rock during a foggy spell, which is typical for this area of the Mer d'Iroise. It was transporting railway rails that now rest neatly on the white sandy seabed at a depth of 28-32 meters.
