The tunnels are actually ancient lava
tubes that start on top of a patch reef and drop vertically
down to about 35m. They then join into one tunnel that exits
the reef wall at 40m. You are then greeted by a mass of fish
that swarm around the reef including a lot of Pelagic action.
Sharks, dogtooth Tuna, Giant Trevally and Barracuda are common.
A 'must do it' dive!
DEPTH RANGE: 15m - 40m
A huge American oil tanker of 14500 tons. She
was sunk in Tulagi harbor on the same day as the Aaron Ward.
Sitting upright on a flat bottom the deck is at 40m and strewn
with artefacts, debris and wreckage.
DEPTH RANGE: 40m - 60m
Also in Tulagi harbour rests the wreck of the
only diveable New Zealand ship in the Solomons, a corvette that
was influential in the sinking of the Japanese Sub at Cape Esperance.
Sitting upright on a sandy bottom.
DEPTH RANGE: 35m - 45m
Rests upright nearly completely
intact on a sandy, silt covered bottom. The right wing is broken
off and sat in front of the plane.
The fuselage is in excellent condition, the nose slightly bent,
likely from impacting the bottom. The fuselage and tail are intact,
with some portions of the outer skin corroded away to allow divers
to view inside. The left wing is well preserved. Silt in the area
reduces dive visibility.
DEPTH RANGE: 20m to 30m
Discovered in 1995, the only diveable
Destroyer in the Solomon Islands. Mortally wounded by Japanese
aircraft on April 7th 1943 she limped as far as Tinete point
where she went down with 27 of her crew. This impressive wreck
is sitting upright and intact on the sandy bottom. Possessing
an extensive arsenal of guns, this is one awesome dive.
DEPTH RANGE: 53m to 70m
