About Mitsubishi A6M Zero (Wreck)
An intact Mitsubishi A6M Zero wreck resting on black sand, reached by boat from Munda, with soft coral color and rich fish life that make it a relaxed wreck-photo dive. Sweetlips, coral trout, schools of baitfish, shrimp, and other invertebrates are part of the public picture, so the site reads as both a WWII relic and a productive marine-life stop.
