About Atago Maru Wreck
To the north of Miri, this dive site consists of a 300+ foot long Japanese wreck from World War II which is covered in numerous sponges and corals. She lies in an area of fairly low visibility but with lots of fish including Barracuda, Grouper and Trevally. The best thing about this dive site is that she lies at a shallow depth and you reach the vessel after just 10 meters of water

  • Partial Overhead Environment — Many wrecks limit direct ascent even without full penetration.

  • Fine Rust Particle Silt-Out — Disturbed rust particles can rapidly reduce visibility.
