Why dive here
With 238+ marine species recorded in the area - including blacktip reef sharks, giant moray eels, pygmy seahorses, seahorses and sperm whales - Mildred's Rock offers some of Sulawesi's richest diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest June, October, November.
Mildred's Rock often gets overshadowed by its flashier neighbours, but it’s a solid dive, especially if you appreciate the subtler things. We’ve found the staghorn coral here is prolific, forming sprawling thickets that shelter a surprising number of cowries and small nudibranchs if you take your time. You’ll spend most of your dive around the bommies, poking into crevices for hooded oysters and checking the sand patches for sleepy reef sharks. It’s a gentle drift on most days, making it ideal for photographers or divers who just want to relax and observe without fighting a current.
