Nippo Maru

Japanese water carrier and cargo ship (3,764 t) sunk in the Fourth Fleet anchorage east of Dublon on 17–18 Feb 1944 (Operation Hailstone); Cousteau's 1969 team found her upright with a port list. On deck and in the forward holds lie a light tank, coastal-defence guns, mines, shells, gas masks and trucks, with a photogenic bridge and masts rising toward shallower water. Grey reef sharks and schools of jacks are often seen around the wreck.

Tiefe: 24–47 m
