RAINBOW WARRIOR

Rainbow Warrior
Just west of Motutapere Island, Cavalli Islands, NORTHLAND
Depth: 15m on deck to 25m on sand
Easy to find as there is usually a buoy on the site, attached to the stern. Swim to the bow where the observation platform is worth a look. Jewel anemones cover the hull and are the best anywhere. Usually snapper, blue maomao and baitfish above the wreck and leatherjackets, pigfish and wrasses over the deck. Inside are schools of big eye and a jumble of cables making the wreck not worth entering.
