About This Dive Spot

The Teru Kaze Maru is a 35-meter-long Japanese submarine hunter that sank on September 24, 1944, during a US air raid near Sangat Island. The wreck begins at a depth of 4 meters and slopes down to a maximum of 20 meters. It remains relatively intact, with several small holds available for penetration. The site is adorned with corals and is home to diverse marine life, making it an excellent location for spotting macro critters, including frequent sightings of mandarin fish.
