Scapa Flow, Orkney

7 September - 14 September

£1188

Scapa Flow in the Orkney Islands is probably one of the most famous wreck diving locations in the world. The Imperial German High Seas Fleet was interned there under the terms of the Armistice at the end of WW1 while negotiations took place over the fate of the ships. Fearing that ships would be shared out between the victors Admiral Ludwig von Reuter decided to scuttle the fleet. On 21 June 1919 52 of the 74 ships sank. Many of the wrecks were salvaged over the years but a significant number still remain and have become renowned sites for divers from all over the world (Wikipedia, 2024)
