Local Intel For Susie's cove
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
This is a scuba-first cove with compact structure and enough current that timing matters more than depth alone.
Freediving
Not a freedive-first site; the shallow rocks can still move enough water to make scuba the safer option.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is not the main use case here because the cove becomes more demanding when current and surge build.
