Today, we're exploring the wreck of the SS City of Adelaide on magneticislandtourism in queensland - looks pretty amazing, right?! The ship was run aground in Cockle Bay back in 1916, and the remains have since been taken over by mangroves. MagneticIsland is surrounded by 20 known shipwrecks, which have been integrated into a shipwreck trail. Signs around the island's bays tell the stories of the many vessels and give an insight into the region's fascinating maritime history.
