Mosquito Wreck is one of Lankayan Island's three wreck diving sites. The ship was once part of the Mosquito Fleet maintained by the Japanese during World War Two.

The wreck itself has some great items of interest - from the bow gun which still remains intact to other bits and pieces of its original cargo. As for fish life, around the surrounding waters you might come across schools of jacks and barracudaOpens in a new window, with the occasional manta rayOpens in a new window or even whale sharksOpens in a new window.
