Scuba Diving
A wall dive for divers who want a clear reef profile, coral ledges, and frequent shark-or-ray encounters.
Freediving
Freediving is only practical on the shallow ledges in calm conditions; scuba is the better fit for the full wall.
Snorkeling
Snorkel can work on the shallower top of the reef, but scuba is better for the wall and sandy-bottom features.
