Akitsushima

Only half of the metal on the starboard side and half of the metal on the bottom of the ship kept the stern from separating from the rest of the ship. The internal damage is impressive. The crane used for lifting the seaplane out of the water is intact. It is lying on the sandy bottom and attracts schools of giant batfish and barracudas.

There are many penetration possibilities for advance wreck divers including penetrating up the propeller shaft from the outside of the ship all the way into the engine room. Strong tidal currents often affect this wreck. Diving in strong currents lets you see the most fish. At the bow you can see the resident three legged turtle and a school of snappers holiding position into a slight current.
