SS Thistlegorm and its Wartime Cargo
Just after a year since its launch into the water the SS Thistlegorm, a commercial navy vessel, was sent to the Red Sea bottom by a Nazi’s bomber. The bomb blasted a yawning gap through the ship framework creating an excellent access for scuba divers. Its cargo made of smashed steam locomotives, trucks and motorbikes looks like an underwater museum of the WW2 military equipment.
