World Shipwrecks

My interest in shipwrecks is not just confined to Devon. Over the years I've travelled quite a lot to see some of the world's greatest shipwreck locations, some very near to home and some the other side of the world.

World Shipwreck Destination Reports:

  • Chuuk, Micronesia:
    Truk Lagoon - scene of the WWII Japanese naval fleet's demise
  • Falmouth:
    Falmouth - one of the biggest natural harbours in the world with scores of shipwrecks around the treacherous
  • Norway:
    The Wrecks Of Narvik - one of the great English / German naval battles of WWII
  • Scilly Isles:
    Scilly Isles - probably more shipwrecks per square mile that any other place on earth
  • Scotland:
    Scapa Flow - the last resting place of Germany's WWI warships

 

Individual World Wreck Reports:

  • New Zealand:
    H.M.N.Z. Waikato - deliberately sunk to create an artificial reef
  • Bali, Indonesia:
    S.S. Liberty - Bali's most popular dive site and uncannily similar to the James Egan Layne in Plymouth
  • Egypt:
    Thistlegorm - Egypt's famous cargo carrier
  • Scotland:
    H.M.S. Port Napier - A fascinating minelayer wreck in Loch Alsh

    Cyprus, Greece
    There are three shipwrecks in cyprus and the main one is Zenobia. It weighed 12,ooo tons an was 172m long. It carried lorries and still has some on it now. It is in the top ten wrecks of the world also.

    Hope this helped Rum
