dbo:abstract
  • Streedagh Strand, la plage de Streedagh, est une plage de sable de 3 km de long située dans la Baie de Donegal, dans le nord du comté de Sligo, au nord-ouest de l'Irlande. Elle se trouve sur la rive nord-ouest d’un banc de sable reliant Streedagh Point à une région connue sous le nom de Connor’s Island. Il s’agit d’une plage exposée avec des pentes de récifs qui créent des conditions de surf idéales toute l’année. Streedagh strand est connue comme lieu d'échouage de trois navires de l'Invincible Armada espagnole : La Lavia, et la . Tous faisaient partie de l'escadron du Levant de l'Armada. Le Lavia était l’almiranta, ou vaisseau amiral de la flotte, et emmenait le juge-avocat général, Martin de Aranda, responsable de la discipline. Après une recherche documentaire approfondie de plus de trois ans, une équipe anglaise de sauvetage, le groupe Streedagh Strand Armada, a identifié le site de l’épave le 6 mai 1985. Par la suite, une bataille judiciaire a lieu pour les droits de sauvetage. Les épaves sont protégées par les lois de 1987 et 1994 sur les monuments nationaux (amendement) qui interdisent toute plongée sur les épaves, sauf sous licence du gouvernement irlandais. Un témoignage de ce naufrage nous est parvenu, celui de Francisco de Cuéllar. Article connexe : Armada espagnole en Irlande. (fr)

dbp:text
  • ..and not being able to weather round or double Cape Clear, in Ireland, on account of the severe storm which arose upon the bow, he was forced to make for the land with these three ships, which, as I say, were of the largest size, and to anchor more than half a league from the shore, where we remained for four days without being able to make any provision, nor could it even be made. On the fifth day there sprang up so great a storm on our beam, with a sea up to the heavens, so that the cables could not hold nor the sails serve us, and we were driven ashore with all three ships upon a beach, covered with very fine sand, shut in on one side and the other by great rocks. The likes of this had never been seen for, within the hour, our three ships broke up completely, with less than three hundred men surviving. Over a thousand drowned among them many important people, captains, gentlemen and regular officers....many men drowned inside the ships, while others jumped into the water never to come up again (en)
