Diving the SS Thistlegorm. Red Sea, Egypt

What. A. Treat.

This is the exact reason I don’t look things up ahead of time. This is a fantastic WWII wreck that sank in 1941 after being attacked by a German bomber. I had the pleasure of completing three dives exploring the inside the wreck, where all of the excitement is; as the ship was filled with: motorcycles, jeeps, trucks and all kinds of things that are still in great condition with little growth on them. There are two decks to explore, and every minute provides something to look at. We did one night dive on the wreck, which was really special. There is a peace to night diving and so, if it’s dark in the ocean anyway, you might as well be in a dark wreck. All kinds of ocean creatures are nocturnal, so it’s also an opportunity to see some creatures you can’t spot during the day.

Stubs.
