The Orkneys are a beautiful place ❤️!
The nature is stunning. But there is also a rich history to discover. The German high seas fleet was scuttled here after WW1.
Diving history!

A big spanner down at the turrets of the SMS Bayern.
The Bayern was scuttled on 21 June 1919 by the Germans themselves. The scuttling ended the interment of the German high seas fleet, which began in November 1918.
