Barachin

Also known as: バラ沈 (Japanese)

The scattered pieces of a sunken ship lie on sand inside a sheltered bay. Glassfish crowd the wreckage and attract leaf scorpionfish and large frogfish, while wrought iron butterflyfish, batfish and clown coris swim around it. Many small shrimps live on the debris, and nudibranchs hide in the plates. With no current it is also a place to watch fish behaviour.
