About this site

The SMS Brummer is widely regarded as Scapa Flow's most photogenic wreck — a WWI German minelaying cruiser sitting upright and remarkably intact at 36 m. Its guns, torpedo tubes, and encrusted superstructure provide an extraordinary window into naval history, with excellent visibility common at this site.
