The *Helvetia* was a 19th-century wooden sailing vessel that wrecked on the coast of Wales, likely during a storm. Though the exact date and circumstances of its loss are unclear, such wrecks from this period often resulted in the loss of life and valuable cargo, and they contribute to the historical understanding of maritime activity and shipbuilding in the region.
