Dive-site story
Resting along a sloping sandy seabed off the Kokopo shoreline, Rapopo Wreck serves as an artificial reef encrusted with encrusting sponges, soft corals, and hydroids. The hull structure provides shelter for macro critters and reef fish, making it a popular dive site accessible directly from the resort beachfront or via a short boat ride.
Extensive invertebrate growth colonizing the collapsed metallic framework
Macro photography opportunities among rusted plates and crevices
Frequent encounters with bottom-dwellers resting on the surrounding sand flats
