What Is Wreck Diving Magazine and What Can You Find on wreckdivingmag.com?

Wreck Diving Magazine is a publication focused on wreck diving, and wreckdivingmag.com is its online home. Visitors can read about specific shipwrecks and dive destinations, follow news and events, and access the current issue (Issue 46) in print or through a digital edition on Zinio. The site also introduces the Shipwreck Exploration Society, a related nonprofit. The site is aimed at divers and readers interested in maritime history, not at people planning a general dive trip or looking for gear reviews.

What the site covers

The homepage presents the magazine as a wreck-diving publication and notes it was voted "Best Publication" by the Eurotek Dive Symposium and the California Wreck Divers Club. Its content centers on individual wrecks and the stories behind them, often with a historical angle.

Topics featured on the site include:

• President Coolidge — described as the world's largest wreck you can dive from shore, marking its 75th anniversary.
• SS Pommerania — the story of a captain who went down with the ship after helping passengers to safety.
• Dreadnoughts — a piece on the battleship that made earlier battleships obsolete.
• The "Dunkirk Schooner" — a fully intact two-masted schooner from the 1700s resting upright in Lake Erie.
• Truk Lagoon — "Ghost Ships of Truk Lagoon," described as one of the great undersea wonders.
• The Russia — a 110-year-old Great Lakes shipwreck mystery.
• Sweden's Oland Island — wooden Baltic wrecks noted as better preserved than those in other oceans.
• The Emperor of Isle Royale — a shipwreck in Lake Superior's Isle Royale National Park.
• Bermuda — the magazine's own dives of Bermuda's wrecks.

There is also a behind-the-scenes look at the National Geographic International TV series Drain The Oceans.

Current issue and how to read it

Issue 46 is described as being on newsstands, and a digital edition is available through zinio.com. According to the site, the digital edition delivers the same material as print plus extras such as video, audio, and live links, readable on iPad, desktop, and laptop. The site includes a "Subscribe Today" prompt, but it does not list prices or payment details, so check the subscription page for current terms.

News, events, and the Shipwreck Exploration Society

The site's news section covers magazine activities and industry notes. Examples include editor Joe Porter consulting for the TV show Hawaii Five-O and the magazine receiving a California Wreck Divers Hall of Fame award. The magazine also reports completing "Wreck-Week" in Morehead City, North Carolina, with photos.

A separate section introduces the Shipwreck Exploration Society (SES) , described as a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization created to fund exploration. Its newest project, per the site, is locating a B-17 that crashed off the coast of Germany in World War II and bringing the remains of airman Charles Crawford and his pilot home. The site directs readers to ShipwreckExplorationSociety.org or the "Latest News" page to learn about joining.

Who it is for

The site suits readers who want wreck-specific stories, historical context, and destination inspiration, and who may want to subscribe to the magazine or follow the nonprofit's projects. It is less useful for someone seeking practical dive training, current gear comparisons, or trip booking, since those are not the focus of the material shown. The magazine also states it is dedicated to the men, women, and children who lost their lives in the tragedies covered in its pages, which sets the tone of the content.
