About this site
Empire Tana lies off the coast of County Down, Northern Ireland, in the waters of the Irish Sea, near the stretch of coastline running past towns such as Ardglass and Killough, an area with several wreck sites known to local dive charters. The wreck rests on a bottom of wreckage at a maximum depth of around 65 metres, making it a technical dive. Divers have reported that soft mud inside the wreck can stir up and reduce visibility for those penetrating the structure.
