The MV Mataora was an outer island cargo schooner that was purposely sunk on the 11th December 1990 for divers. Originally 45m in length, the 300 tons vessel lays today in 10 to 18 metres of water. After many tropical cyclones the wreck is severely broken up, but the bow and stern are still recognisable today.
