Crocodile Rock lies between Dwerja Point and Fungus Rock at a seven meter deep plateau and gets its name from its appearance above water; obviously resembling a crocodile! The dive plan is often just a simple round around the rock starting at the boat mooring between shore and the rock. Take the left side around the rock and you will find an excellent 45 meter drop-off with excellent marine life and coral growth. Looking down to the bottom you will see boulders covered with algae. Take your time there before finishing your round around the crocodile.

Fish near the drop-off such as salema, tuna, barracudas and large groupers are common. Boat dives are preferred but it is possible to get here by shore, stumbling across slippery spiky rocks.
