  • Shipwreck Database
    A wealth of shipwrecks in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary are a result of the significant maritime exploration and trade which has occurred here, coupled with a coastline dotted with shallow, rocky headlands and largely exposed to fog, prevailing winds and storms. More than 140 shipwrecks have been documented in this region, and there are undoubtedly more that are not recorded. The shallow, rocky areas of Point Lobos, Cypress Point, Point Pinos and Santa Cruz have the highest known frequency of recorded shipwrecks for the Sanctuary.
