Sunken Sailboat Snorkel (Toopua channel)
16° 30.8′ S · 151° 46.1′ W
A wrecked sailboat mapped as a snorkel site in the channel east of Motu Toopua, a short dinghy hop from the Toopua and Vaitape mooring fields.
Practical
Coordinate from the OSM 'Snorkeling voilier coulé' node (mapped 2017); depth and the wreck's current condition are not published, so look before you jump. The site lies near the marked channel between Vaitape and Toopua, so keep a lookout for boat traffic, fly a dive flag and do not anchor the dinghy in the channel.
Best for
Quick wreck snorkel near the western moorings
