Maravagi F4F Wildcat (Wreck) is an advanced boat dive in the Solomon Islands with an intact inverted Wildcat on a white sand bottom and a reef ascent that lets the dive finish shallower than it starts. A steady current has helped soft and hard corals grow over the aircraft and the nearby reef, so this is best for experienced divers who are comfortable with depth, current, and a planned ascent. Reef fish are common around the wreck and the adjacent reef, adding to the site's appeal once the wreck is reached.
