Scuba Diving
This is a guided boat dive for certified divers who want varied terrain rather than a single flat reef. The shallow side is manageable, but the rock and channel work reward good buoyancy and comfort in surge.
Freediving
Freediving is not the main use case here. The site's value comes from boat access, structure, and the easier scuba-only logistics.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is secondary. Calmer shallow pockets may be usable, but the site is built for scuba exploration.
