Wreck Dive Rainbow Warrior, New Zealand
The Greenpeace ship Rainbow Warrior was bombed by French government agents in Auckland harbor in July 1985 to prevent her from interfering in a nuclear test in Moruroa. The Rainbow Warrior was refloated for forensic examination. She was deemed irreparable and scuttled in beautiful Matauri Bay, near the Cavalli Islands, on December 2, 1987, to serve as a dive wreck and fish sanctuary.
At a max depth of 27m the Warrior is now home to a huge variety of aquatic life and is a world renowned dive site. The ship is covered in colorful corals, anemones, sponges and plenty of eels, goatfish and other fish.
Her masts had been removed and put on display at the Dargaville Maritime museum.
