The B-24 Tulsamerican is a Second World War American bomber resting on the seabed off Vis Island. This wreck dive sits at depths between 38 and 52 metres, with an average depth of 40 metres. The aircraft remains largely intact, featuring overhead sections and penetration points that present entanglement risks. Access is by boat only, and the site is suited for intermediate divers due to the significant depth. Visibility varies from 10 to 40 metres, though interior sections remain dark, requiring a torch. Divers should be prepared for mild currents and potential temperature drops at depth, with water temperatures ranging from 14 to 20 degrees Celsius.

Book a guided tour rather than diving this independently: the guides know the orientation of the wreck and the safest penetration points, which saves bottom time at 50 metres. Bring a torch regardless of the surface visibility forecast, as the interior sections are dark even on the clearest days.
