Japanese freighter / cargo ship 120m long Max depth 25m - Min depth 14m  in a pearl farm area. Red mooring ball tied to the stern and black mooring ball tied to the bow. History: It is not certain which ship this is, some called it the Morazon Maru or the Taiei Maru. Possible dives on the wreck and things to see: Deck levels are at 18-24m, so it is a good wreck to start with your wreck diving experience and since there are so many masts it is easy to make your ascend to the surface! An interesting dive is to go into the first cargo bay in the stern, then dive through a narrow hole into the second bay and continue to the engine room (with boilers), then dive back on deck. Animals to see: There are some nice black coral bushes, usually covered by clouds of glasfish and juvenile barracudas and if you take a look you will find some hidden predators like scorpionfishes or waspfishes calmly sitting there waiting to catch their dinner. There are also blue sponges with the beautiful white and black Jorunna funebris nudibranchs.
