MV Mikhail Lermontov, wreck
The Mikhail Lermontov is one of the biggest cruise ship dives in the world. Sunk under mysterious circumstance in 1986, it has become a world class wreck dive suitable for divers from beginner all the way to technical. The Lermontov lies in a remote sheltered bay at the top of New Zealand’s South island.
The wreck has become an artificial reef with a vast representation of local fish species; Moki, Kingfish, Cray Fish, Blue Mao Maobarsch, Terakihi, Nudibranchs, and Octopus to name a few.
