P47 Thunderbolt is a Corsican offshore wreck dive off Miomo near Bastia, usually run as a guided boat outing from Sisco or Bastia. The aircraft rests on a relatively shallow Mediterranean bottom with a well-preserved airframe, nearby rocks, and marine growth, making it a classic wreck-and-reef dive for divers who want an accessible WWII site rather than a long technical profile. The route is straightforward once you are on site, and the surrounding rocks extend the dive.
