All about Bait Ball dive site

Cocos Island
Bait Ball is a Cocos Island site whose name suggests concentrated fish activity and predator movement. It has the high-energy feel of open-ocean diving, where the scene can change quickly as schools shift through the water.

What to see

Schooling fish, jacks, tuna, silky sharks, hammerheads, rays, and other predators may be seen. Encounters depend on baitfish, current, and seasonal ocean conditions.

When To Go Diving

June to November can be especially interesting for big-animal action, while December to May may bring calmer seas and clearer water. Water temperatures vary with depth, from warm tropical layers to cooler thermoclines.
