Scuba
The SMS Kronprinz Wilhelm was a massive German battleship from WWI. The wreck lies on its side, and its huge, 12-inch gun turrets are an awe-inspiring sight. This is one of the most impressive and historic wreck dives at Scapa Flow.
Features
A 175m (574ft) long König-class battleship. The wreck is largely upside down but its massive gun turrets have fallen away and are a major highlight. A spectacular deep, technical wreck dive for experienced cold-water divers.
