The Tambuli Aeroplane Wreck is a fascinating dive site featuring the remains of a six-seater airplane. Located at a depth ranging from 16 to 23 meters, it rests on a sloping wall just offshore from the Tambuli resort. This wreck offers an adventure for both open water and advanced divers. Experienced divers can explore the side entrance and navigate through the windscreen, but careful maneuvering is required to avoid snagging equipment – particularly hoses or attachments – on the aircraft's structure. The site presents an interesting visual experience with its unique history.
