Why “Atocha” ?

The name Atocha is not just a brand; it’s a story of a long-lost treasure, a relentless quest, and the ultimate triumph of discovery.

The year was 1622 when the Nuestra Señora de Atocha, a Spanish galleon laden with a treasure beyond imagination, was lost to the sea in a devastating hurricane. For nearly four centuries, the ship and its incredible cargo—gold, silver, and priceless emeralds—were a legend, a symbol of value lost to the tides of time.

The story could have ended there, but it didn't. It became a quest. For nearly two decades, a team of dedicated treasure hunters, using meticulous research and unwavering commitment, pursued what many believed to be impossible. Their journey was a testament to the power of perseverance—a belief that with the right strategy and tools, hidden value can be found. In 1985, they finally located the shipwreck, a moment of profound discovery that brought a legendary treasure back to the world.
