Simplified Wreck Survey

The wreck of the NEPTUNIA is located at coordinates 58 46.309 N, 3 14.177 W off the coast of Dunnet Head in the Pentland Firth, Scotland. Historically recorded under survey references H1466/36 and H2925, this underwater obstruction was the subject of multiple hydrographic investigations. While early reports identified a position near Dunnet Head, subsequent surveys in 1985 by BUE Subsea noted that the wreck was not found at its original charted location. This submerged site remains a point of interest for maritime charting and underwater navigation in the North Sea region near the northern tip of the Scottish mainland.
