Interested in diving at the remains of a sunken Japanese Zero airplane; you can dive here inside the lagoon of Fanif.

Name Dive Site:Japanese Zero
Depth: 13-39ft (4-12m)
Inserted/Added by: beyond_the_reef
Specifications:

Located in one of the "blue holes" in Fanif (northwestern Yap) are the remains of a Japanese Zero. In the 1940's, this fighter plane crash landed in the lagoon, and the two pilots swam to shore and walked up on the beach, announcing their arrival. The plane is in two pieces, with the fuselage and wings in about 15 ft/ 5 m and the tail section in about 40 ft/13 m. This plane can be seen while snorkeling, as a surface interval activity after a dive in Miil Channel.
