The War Hawk was an 182ft wooden sailing vessel built in Main in 1855. In 1883 it caught fire and sank in Discovery Bay and now sits only 35ft deep near Mill Point. Possibly the oldest and most historical wreck that is still identifiable, this site should be on every NW wreck diver’s list.
Remarkably, sections of the hull, masts and beams remain to give refuge to the colorful life that now inhabits the shallow wreck. The site is shallow, sheltered from current and the bay receives little boat traffic making it a great dive destination for any level of diving experience. Please see NW Wreck Dives for additional information about the history of this vessel.
