El Grillo Wreck, Seyðisfjörður

The El Grillo wreck is located in the fjord of Seyðisfjörður, in the East of Iceland. The ship was a British oil tanker sunk during World War II by German aircraft. Lying at a depth ranging between 15 and 45 meters, the wreck is relatively intact and has become a haven for marine life, including pollock, lumpfish, and various invertebrates. The site is not only of interest for its historical significance but also for the opportunity to explore a well-preserved wreck in clear, cold waters.
