Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Best as a guided boat dive with a computer and light. The structure rewards slow exploration, especially on the wall and pipeline sections.
Freediving
Not the primary use case. The depth and wall structure make scuba the sensible mode for most visits.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is secondary here and mostly limited to calm-water surface time near the cove rather than the full dive route.
