The SS Thistlegorm Wreck is one of the best dive sites in the
world and is actually considered by many as THE best Wreck
dive in the World! The SS Thistlegorm is a World War 2 ship
wreck located in the North of Red Sea in the Strait of Gubal. It
is a former 128m long British transport ship sunk in 1941 after
a German air attack.
What is really great on the SS Thistlegorm Wreck are the
artefacts that you can see underwater. There are 2 locomotives,
2 tanks, Army Trucks, jeeps, Motorbikes, Boots, stacks of rifles,
and various spare parts for planes and cars. It is like diving
within a piece of History! There are so many things to see that
you need at least 2 dives to explore the entire shipwreck! It is
really the perfect spot if you like wreck diving! Penetration is
possible into the holds to discover the various items. You can
also still see the ship anti aircraft gun. |
