Machafushi Wreck was sunk in 1998, by now the artificial reef supports a great variety of marine life. The wreck sits upright only a short swim from the reef which slopes gently from 2 to 25m. It's keel at 28m and its deck at 12m.
Near the stern you'll find the crew quarters and wheelhouse, where oriental sweet lips and blue lined snappers took over from amidships to the bow. A variety of encrusting sponges, leather and tubastrea corals and a few small soft corals have since taken hold on the wreck. It is also home to several large moray eels, groupers, batfish and host of reef fishes.
