The Grande Passe 1 shipwreck lies 45 m deep off the coast of Porquerolles Island, Hyères, southern France. Discovered in 1975, new fieldwork campaigns in 2017 and 2018 brought to light a part of the hull (keel, planking, frames), indications of its cargo from the 2nd century BC (Graeco-Italic amphorae), and three well preserved iron anchors. This paper provides a first archaeological analysis of the wreck
