Sankisan Maru

One forward hold is filled with machine gun and rifle ammunition, and others contain truck frames, aircraft engines and propellers. The explosion tore off the aft part, and the stern with propeller and rudder sits at the edge of a large crater some distance away in deeper water. Hard and soft corals drape the foreship and the mast, with many small fish around them. Most of the dive is open and easy, so it suits a wide range of divers. Divers are told not to touch the loose ammunition.
