DIVE THE RAINBOW WARRIOR, one of New Zealand's premiere wreck dives;
The Rainbow Warrior was Greenpeace's flagship on its way to protest France's nuclear testing on the Mururoa Atoll when it was sunk by French saboteurs on July 10, 1985, in Auckland Harbour. Three years after the bombing Greenpeace gifted the Warrior to the sea and she now lies as an artificial reef in the Cavalli Island group, a refuge for the marine life she was sunk trying to protect.

At a max depth of 27m the Warrior is now home to a huge variety of aquatic life and is a world renowned dive site.
