Shipwrecks

The Red Sea is known for its fierce storms and chains of reefs and submerged islands. These can be a navigational nightmare for pilots who aren't paying attention or for those caught in one of the storms. The proof of this is scattered at the bottom. Many ships have gone down and we have listed below a vast list and as much information about each as possible.
