About this site

Crocodile Avenue is a sandy slope on the northern side of Mabul, in Malaysia, descending gently to about 20 metres. It is a good site for macro divers and underwater photographers, over a mix of reef and muck. Visibility is up to 10 metres and Open Water certification is enough.

The site is named for the numerous crocodile fish that live here. They are harmless, brilliant camouflage artists, found on the sandy seafloor, so scan the sand and the weed patches for them. Snake eels and ghost pipefish can also be found, and tiny clinging seahorses hide in the weed patches. It is also a good night dive for seeing the common animals in a different light.
