About this site
Catalina Wreck Point lies along the coast of Papua, Indonesia, near Cenderawasih Bay, an area known for its remote coastline and deep offshore waters. The name points to a downed PBY Catalina flying boat associated with the site, consistent with the wartime wreckage scattered through this part of the Pacific. It is reached mainly by boat from small coastal settlements along the Papuan shore, and it is rated an advanced dive.
