The northernmost state of Australia, the Northern Territory, is also a haven of hundreds to thousands sea creatures. With more than 20 diving destinations, Northern Territory is undeniably a haven for divers as well. Here is where you will find the USAT Meigs, Bus Stop, Dudley Bommies, Dieman, East Point Artificial Reef, Mauna Loa, Pipeline Reef, Catalina Flying Boat, and Song Saigon. The USAT Meigs is a popular diving site not only because of the remarkable sea life that dwells here but also because of its interesting history. The largest schooner in Darwin during its time, the USAT Meigs was sunk in 1959 by the Japanese.

The Mauna Loa may remind you of a volcano in Hawaii, but it is actually a sea vessel that looks like the Meigs. Other sunken sea vessels that became superb diving sites in Northern Territory include USS Peary, Marchart 3, and the John Holland Barge.
