Kamikaze Maru

The ship sits upright with the deck around 30 m and the bottom at about 35 m. Torpedoes were still on board after the war, so salvagers removed only part of the deck structures. The hull is silty but carries black corals and wire corals, and rainbow runners, batfish and Moorish idols live around it. The wreck was rediscovered in the 1980s after a sudden explosion released bubbles from below. Live torpedoes and pressure cylinders make it a site for serious wreck divers only.
