The sea is simultaneously powerful, awful, beautiful and mysterious. Strange creatures roam its depths, and its vast expanses have been party to events that have shaken the world. The sea seems to be jealous about giving up its secrets, and capriciously, it seems, it hides events and their causes from us.
This page contains information on mysterious tragedies, wrecks, derelicts and disappearances, as well as reports of strange occurrences and sightings of strange creatures at sea; it lists some explanatory theories, and provides links to other, relevant sites. Information posted comes from various books, magazines, newspaper programs, 'Net newsclips, television programs and films, and the references are (or should be) listed. I encourage anyone interested in these phenomena to go to the sources for a deeper appreciation of the stories behind these events.
Know any good stories? Are you an artist?
I plan on weekly, or at minimum monthly, updates. Want to know when I update this page?
