Boat wreck with cave sections and manta and shark life.
Use a local Cocos operator; access is a short transit from West Island and the cave sections need a briefing.
Two Caves (Wreck) is a boat-access wreck site in the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, where a broken-up vessel now lies scattered across the seabed with a recognisable hull section under the engines. Two small cave-like openings sit near the reef wall, so the dive mixes wreck texture, short overhead sections, and room to pause for fish life. It is best for divers who are comfortable with wreck planning, careful buoyancy, and a torch.
Site Conditions
Safety Notes
The cave sections are short overhead spaces and the wreck debris creates snag points, so keep trim tight and use a torch in the cave areas.
Access Restrictions
Boat access only; pre-book through the local operator and bring a torch.

Freediving
Not a routine freedive site because the wreck and cave sections sit at scuba depth.
Snorkeling
Not a snorkel site; the wreck and cave features are best appreciated underwater.
