Nosy Be - The Wreck (Mitsio Wreck) - Nosy Mitsio

We’ve found Nosy Mitsio’s wreck, often called the Mitsio Wreck, to be a pleasant surprise. It’s a smaller vessel, probably a fishing trawler, sitting upright on the seabed between 18 and 30 metres. What it lacks in grand scale, it makes up for with the sheer density of fish life that has made it home – look for schools of snapper darting in and out of the superstructure, and plenty of nudibranchs if you’re patient enough to really explore the encrusted metal. It’s a good spot for a second dive, offering a relaxed pace and a chance to poke around without strong currents.
