The list of shipwrecks in 2024 includes ships sunk, foundered, grounded, or otherwise lost during 2024.
The cargo ship veered off course due to ice flows and strong winds resulting in her becoming stranded in shallow waters on the edge of Väinameri Bay, Estonia.[1]
The cargo ship suffered cargo shift in heavy seas, rolled on her side and probably sank in the Sulu Sea off the west coast of Mindanao. The crew was rescued by the Philippine Coast Guard.[3]
An abandoned vessel capsized with around 35,000 barrels (5,600 m3) of oil and drifted aground off Cove Eco-Industrial Park, on the southern coast of Tobago, causing an oil spill.[11][12] The ship was en route from Panama to Guyana. On 28 February oil began to wash ashore on Bonaire, believed to have originated from the ship Gulfstream.[13][14]
The offshore supply vessel sank 9 nautical miles (17 km; 10 mi) northwest of Kuala Kemena off Bintulu, Sarawak, Malaysia. The crew was rescued by the patrol vessel Bot Kilat 44 and a water taxi.[17]
Russian invasion of Ukraine: The tanker, washed ashore on Kinburn Spit since 2023, and being used as an observation station and drone control by Russian Forces, was destroyed by a Ukrainian air strike.[29]
The fishing trawler exploded, caught fire and sank off Pionersky after being hit by a Russian missile during an exercise in the Baltic Sea. Four of her seven crew were rescued, one was killed and two were reported missing.[31][32]
The 55-metre (180 ft) fishing vessel was sunk in a collision with SITC Danang (Panama) 22 nautical miles (41 km; 25 mi) southwest of Yinggehai town in Ledong, Hainan province, China. The crew of eight were reported missing.[38]
The fishing vessel used as a ferry sank off the north coast of Mozambique. More than 90 of the 130 people on board were reported killed.[40][41]
