There was an interesting tidbit on the U.K. website for The Telegraph, in the travel section: “Ghosts of the coasts: The stories behind seven shipwrecks you can see without diving” (bit.ly/TeleIre). There’s one caveat: Some are only accessible to snorkelers.

One of the ships given some international recognition was Oregon’s very own Peter Iredale shipwreck, which joined other hiding-in-the-sand wrecks in Greece, Spain, Bermuda, Wales, Cape Verde and the Bahamas.

In case Brits want to see the Iredale in person, the article mentions that a London travel website, AmericaAsYouLikeIt.com, offers a 14-night “Best of Oregon and Washington” road trip. The North Coast has definitely been “found.”
