US and Japanese aircraft
Japanese freighter
Amazing history
Great marine life
These are just a couple of the fascinating wrecks Munda has to offer:
Kashi Maru: This Japanese coastal freighter was caught at anchor by bombers on July 3 1945. She now lies at 17m, her artefact-filled hold easily accessible to all levels of diver and her engine room penetrable.
The Airacobra: Discovered only in April 2011, little is known about this American P-39 fighter. The aircraft was clearly shot down on a combat mission, as the ammunition trays all have rounds in them but are not full. 
The Dauntless: This Douglas SBD-4 Dauntless dive bomber was hit by AA fire during a raid on Munda, on July 23 1943. Pilot Jim Dougherty put his plane down in Rendova Harbour, where she still rests at 13m.
