View category Thistlegorm wreck
The SS Thistlegorm was built and launched in 1940 in Sunderland, England. She was on her journey from Glasgow via Cape Town to Alexandria, when she was bombed by two German Heinkel He 111 aircrafts on 6th October 1941. Four sailors and five members of the Royal Navy gun crew lost their lives. Now the Thistlegorm is one of the most famous wreck dive sites in the world. Most of the pictures here are shot outside the wreck, for inside shots I would definitely need a better camera :-(
