Wreck of Teeswood

The *Teeswood* is one of Scapa Flow's lesser-dived beauties, often overlooked for the German High Seas Fleet giants. And that's exactly why we love it. This isn't a massive battleship, but a more intimate, intriguing wreck, sitting upright and largely intact. As you descend, the sheer scale of the hold opens up, and we always find ourselves drawn inside, finning through the gloom, imagining the cargo she once carried. What really sets the *Teeswood* apart is the way the marine life has claimed her. We've seen lumpsuckers tucked into crevices, their suction cups gripping tight, and the entire wreck is carpeted in sea stars. Look closely among the wreckage, and you'll spot bull rout and butterfish darting between the plates. It's a proper adventure, a glimpse into history and a thriving artificial reef all in one. It suits divers who appreciate intricate exploration over grand scale, and who aren't afraid of a bit of chill. Aim for a slack tide; the currents here can be a bit lively.
