Scuba Diving
A shore-based wall dive for divers comfortable with deeper freshwater profiles and careful buoyancy along a steep drop-off.
Freediving
Not a primary freedive target; the site is more useful as a scuba wall dive because of the depth and bridge-area traffic.
Snorkeling
Not a strong snorkel site because the interesting structure drops away quickly from the entry.
