Dive the Rainbow Warrior, one of New Zealands premiere wreck
dives;
The Rainbow
Warrior was Greenpeaces flagship on its way to protest Frances
nuclear testing on the Mururoa Atoll when it was sunk by French
saboteurs on July 10, 1985, in Auckland Harbour. Three years after
the bombing Greenpeace gifted the Warrior to the sea and she now
lies as an artificial reef in the Cavalli Island group, a refuge
for the marine life she was sunk trying to protect.
At a max depth
of 27m the Warrior is now home to a huge variety of aquatic life
and is a world renowned dive site.
