The North Wall is the most visited divesite around Cook Island. The site consists of 5 moorings ranging form a depth of 5 meters and drops off to a sandy 13 metres.
This is where the Tuttle Sancturay is located. Most of the dive will be conducted along the mini wall from moorings 2-4. This divesite is great for entry level divers all the way to experienced divers

South Side
South side has a variety of sponges at a depth about 5metres. A very easy shallow divesite which is in exceptional condition as the site was not dived as frequently in the past.

This side consist of 5 moorings ranging from a depth of 5 metres to 11 metres. During summer we ocassionally get Manta Ray around the peak at Mooring 2.
There is rarely current betwen moorings 1-5 so it is a easy cruisy 2 dive.

Turtle Sanctuary
Feeling a bit adventureous and want to practise your navigation skills. About 330 degrees and 5 minutes slow swim along the sand and you will come across Turtle Santuary.
We try not to visit this site often since it is a resting area for the Green Turtles. DO NOT DISTURB is generally the motto on this dive.
Sneak in and sneak out is the genaral plan.

Marys Rock

Heaps of swim through and crevices to explore with abundant marine life, the highlight of this site is the huge wobbygongs sharks.

This divesite is totally weather dependant.
