Scuba
The Akitsushima was a Japanese seaplane tender and is the only true warship wreck in Coron Bay. The wreck lies on its side and is heavily damaged, but it's a fascinating dive, featuring anti-aircraft guns and the massive crane used to lift seaplanes.
Features
A Japanese seaplane tender and the only naval vessel in the Coron fleet. The wreck is deep and was heavily damaged by the explosion of its fuel tanks. The massive crane and anti-aircraft guns are key features. Requires advanced/technical certification.
