StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

Enterprise is exactly what we look for when we dive Cocos, a site that just feels wild. You’ll drop onto a massive bommie sitting right on the edge of a deep drop-off, a proper ocean interface. We love to get there on an incoming tide. That upwelling really gets the food chain fired up. We’re talking grey reef sharks cruising past, often a dozen at a time, and big dogtooth tuna launching themselves into schools of fusiliers. That deep blue wall holds promise. For those comfortable with a bit of exposure, slipping down to 26m reveals a small cave, more an overhang really, but it’s cool to poke your head in and see what's lurking in the shadows. Keep an eye out for those big groupers often hanging around the bommie at the end of the dive. This site is for experienced divers who appreciate raw energy and big pelagics.
