HMS Otranto was a First World War Royal Navy armed merchant cruiser which was present at the Battle of Coronel. She was one of only two British ships present to survive, the other being HMS Glasgow.
She was subsequently wrecked with the loss of 431 lives on 16 October 1918 off Islay whilst serving as a troopship, following a collision with HMS Kashmir during a storm.
