The Thistlegorm is a World War Two British transport ship that was bombed in October 1941.<\/p>\n<p>When exploring the wreck there are two dives you can do, an external and internal dive. Things to look out for are the deck guns, train wagons, ammunition, motorcycles, trucks and army boots.<\/p>\n<p>This site is amazing in both the day and at night. At 130 metres in length the wreck is a giant underwater museum making every dive unique and quite rightfully making it one of the most famous, interesting dive sites in the world.<\/p>\n<table
