Wreck resurfaces at Corbiere













The recent stormy weather has loosened an old shipwreck from the sea bed. Go to Corbiere to see it. It is amazing!

Jersey Gazette, 14th October 1837

"A grievous wreck hath occurred off La Corbière: the brig Celestine, bound from Lisbon, was dashed upon the rocks in tempestuous seas. All hands perished. The lighthouse keepers report timbers strewn and sails rent asunder."
