THE "MITSIO" WRECK - Nosy Iranja & Radama Islands
The Mitsio Wreck, sunk intentionally in 2007, quickly became a proper fish magnet. We’re talking schools of sardines and fusiliers so dense they sometimes block out the light, circling the structure like a living cloak. You'll also find friendly batfish that cruise right up to you, along with the usual suspects: lionfish tucked into crevices, moray eels peering from holes, and big yellow snappers schooling above the deck. It’s not a massive wreck for deep penetration, but it’s a brilliant shallow dive for anyone who loves watching fish interact with a structure, making it a great spot for photographers or those looking for an easy, productive dive.
