Nanshin Maru
★★★★☆
(51)
This wreck is probably an American “Civilian Oil Tanker” most likely sunk by a Typhoon after WWII and was not part of the Japanese Fleet sunk by the American Forces. It sits in an upright position on the sandy bottom at 32m of depth near “Black Island”
Fish life is quite pleasant with a lot of interesting small stuff, big-sized Emperors, batfish, lionfish, a lot of angel fishes and anemone-fishes.
