What is on the bottom is not one intact hull. It is a scatter of Second World War remains on a sand and rock slope: aircraft, trucks, jeeps, and tyres. The aircraft named here is a Bristol Beaufort. Trucks sit around 30 m. The aircraft is deeper, toward 40 m. The map lists 30–45 m. Another wreck lies deeper than a recreational dive. Do not chase it.
Around 15 m there is a fringing reef. Clownfish and parrotfish are easier to see there, and turtles pass now and then. Over the deeper metal, snapper school and there is tuna. Coral grows on the aircraft and the vehicles. Current is usually weak. Visibility is often 10–30 m. The water is about 29–30°C. Entry is by boat.
This is a deep dive. The part that makes sense for recreation stops at the aircraft, not at the wreck at 50 m. Ascend slowly, and do not enter an airframe or a truck cab.
