Scuba Diving
A common approach is to dive with the left shoulder toward the wall along the drop-off.
Freediving
Only experienced freedivers should use the shallow top of the wall in calm windows; this is primarily a scuba wall rather than a breath-hold site.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is limited to calm surface conditions near the reef edge; the main spectacle sits below the wall top.
