Koi Wreck

★★★★☆ (65)

The Koi is a 32-meter vessel from Scotland, built in 1912 and sunk in 1940. Originally a passenger ship travelling between Motueka and Nelson, it was later converted into a coal ship. She now lies in 12 meters of water and is a great dive site for macro photography!

Expect to see Nudibranchs, Decorator crabs, Leather jackets, Blue cod, Spotties, Goatfish, Blue Mao Mao, Seahorses and an abundance of invertebrate life!
