Darwin Island is considered one of the best places to dive in the world. Divers can usually see several species of sharks, dolphins, turtles, eagle rays and schools of colorful fish. Schools of hammerhead sharks and whale sharks are the highlights of diving in Darwin. Diving is generally done near the arch and not near Darwin Island. The sites are made up of series of plateaus which descend to very great depths. Diving is also possible between the arch and the island, in a sandy channel, where it is possible to come across tiger sharks. The currents can sometimes be very strong on these sites and launching must be done in a negative manner.
