Few maritime discoveries capture the imagination like the Nuestra Señora de Atocha—a Spanish treasure galleon that succumbed to a 1622 hurricane off the Florida Keys, carrying an estimated $400 million in silver, gold, and precious gems. Centuries later, its manifest still lists 36 coin chests yet to be found, making the Atocha one of the most alluring underwater hunts in history.
Aqua Survey has joined forces with Mel Fisher’s Treasures to advance efforts along the Atocha debris trail in Key West, Florida. By collaborating closely with Fisher’s veteran recovery team, Aqua Survey will help ensure each dive yields maximum geological and archaeological insight.
