About this site
Wayame lies along the coast of Ambon Bay on Ambon Island, in the Maluku province of eastern Indonesia, within the inner bay stretch long known among divers for its sheltered muck diving sites close to shore. The wreck itself sits in this muck environment, drawing divers more for what has settled around and on it than for the structure. Divers here have reported blue dragon nudibranchs, leaf scorpionfish, many-lobed ceratosoma, papuan cuttlefish, snowflake moray eels, swimming anemones, and weedy scorpionfish, making it a site favored by those hunting small, unusual critters rather than big pelagics.
