Le Messerschmitt
★★★★☆
(29)
Still well preserved, the wreck lies on its back at a depth of around 44 meters to the north of the islet. Look out for its resident lobster or a grouper hidden under a wing! The Messerschmitt can easily be paired with the wrecks of the Chaouen and Dalton, for a memorable dive albeit reserved for experienced divers.
The plane was shot down trying to intercept American bombers on March 7, 1944. Its story was told in 1993 by the pilot himself, Hans Fahrenberger!
