Castle Rock is an amazing dive site in the Komodo Islands! It is a huge pinnacle underwater with a top at 4 m deep. As the site is in open water, the visibility is usually very good but be very careful to the strong current! You can pretty much see everything on this dive site, from Manta rays to grey reef sharks, giant trevallies to schools of tuna and maybe even dolphins

Macro observation and photography spot. Location based around one or many Rocks. This is great place for spotting and diving with Sharks!

You can dive Castle Rock all year long. Access: from the Shore. See the map of Castle Rock on the right for the exact location.

Fishes you may spot while diving Castle Rock

Black Tip Shark
Grouper
Snapper
