Service
In mid-1913, Nereide was with the Second Destroyer Flotilla.[6]
In September 1914 while on passage to Devonport, Nereide collided with S.S. Valegarth. Lt. Cdr. Dewar was cautioned for having failed to take full instructions for the transit.[7]
In March 1917, she became part of the Fifth Destroyer Flotilla in the Mediterranean. In May 1917, her contingent became known as the Malta Flotilla. In March 1918, they were merged back into 5 D.F..
She was reduced to C. & M. Party at Devonport on 15 October, 1919.[8]
