Base 1 Muck Site
★★★★☆
(8)
Located at the northern end of Tulagi Harbour the site was once the location of the US Combat Engineers (SEEBEES) where warship repairs were carried out during WW2. As such the bay is littered with “muck“ from that era including landing craft, munitions, small cargo ships, fishing boats, aircraft parts and more.
A myriad of critters can be found in this environment as well as large plate corals and juvenile sweetlips.
