About this dive site

This dive site features the C-47 plane wreck, which was intentionally sunk in 2010 to establish a natural reef area between two islands – a smaller island and a middle-sized island. The aircraft, manufactured in 1942, previously served as both a military cargo plane and an operational transport plane. This creates a unique dive experience where divers can explore the remains of this historical vehicle while contributing to a developing artificial reef ecosystem. Visibility is expected to be good, allowing for detailed observation of the wreck's structure and surrounding marine life.
