Great Lakes Shipwreck Preserve

The Great Lakes Shipwreck Preserve is a conservation initiative focused on protecting and preserving shipwreck sites in the Great Lakes region. These sites, which include sunken vessels from various historical periods, are valuable for their cultural, historical, and ecological significance. The preserve operates through partnerships with local communities, historical societies, and divers to promote awareness, education, and responsible exploration of these underwater sites. By safeguarding these wrecks, the initiative helps to maintain the maritime heritage of the Great Lakes while providing opportunities for research and recreational diving.
