"The Galleons of Vigo Bay" was the title of a chapter of one of Jules Verne's most popular works. The heroes of the novel landed from the fantastic submarine "Nautilus" and took a walk along the bottom of the bay, where in 1702 Spanish ships with jewelry from the New World were sunk, intended by the Spanish King Philip V to his grandfather Louis XIV - King of France for the war with Austria, Britain, Holland and the German principalities for the Spanish inheritance. It seemed to the great science fiction writer that the water at depth was as transparent as air, so his heroes easily found the sunken riches that the mythical captain Nemo used as his treasury.→
