Cod Hole

About this site

Cod Hole on the far northern Ribbon Reefs is legendary for its resident population of massive potato cod that approach divers with total confidence, sometimes reaching over a metre in length. The site is accessed mainly via liveaboard and sits at a comfortable 18 m maximum on a coral-rich reef plateau. Schools of barracuda, reef sharks, and vibrant soft corals round out one of the Coral Sea's most memorable dives.
