Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Witte Leeuw

Sunk in action with two Portuguese carracks; now just a ballast mound can be seen. Carrying a cargo of spices and diamonds. Salvage in the 1970's recovered Chinese Ming porcelain, tons of pepper and some canon, but no diamonds! The ship had exploded as it sank scattering items far and wide. Witte Leeuw is also known as White Lion.
