Turks & Caicos
Fellow blogger Tom Moran from Urban Ghosts inspired this post. His excellent article on ‘Ship Graveyards: Abandoned Ships, Boats and Shipyards‘
sent me on a quest to find some incredible photographs of shipwrecks around the
world. The United Nations estimates that there are
more than 3 million shipwrecks
on the ocean floor [Source: Wikipedia].
These once mighty vessels, both sunken and beached, are a haunting reminder
that nothing lasts forever. These beautiful ships used to rule the seas they
traveled. Now they serve as a window into our past.
