    Reef J offers a unique chance to explore several M-60 Battle Tanks deliberately sunk for diver training. It’s an unusual dive, seeing these large military vehicles resting on the bottom. We’d suggest this site for those interested in wreck diving or a different kind of underwater exploration. It's less about natural beauty and more about the novelty of the submerged machinery.
