About Matavera Point
Matavera Point is a deep Cook Islands wall dive for experienced divers who want a compact run along a reef corner before the drop turns vertical. A reef plateau sets up the dive, then the wall falls away fast and the route can be paired with the neighboring wall site when conditions allow. Currents can converge at the point, so the best dives stay deliberate, well planned and anchored around the corner rather than pushing wide into open water.

Local Intel For Matavera Point
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba
Use the plateau as the setup and keep the dive compact as the wall turns vertical. The site can be paired with the neighboring wall when conditions and gas plans stay conservative.
Freedive
Not recommended for freediving because the drop and current make it a better scuba profile.
Snorkel
Not a snorkel site; the point dive is too deep and current-sensitive for casual surface use.
