Before you arrive
Access notes
Visiting divers must present certification, a medical certificate less than one year old and proof of insurance. GERSMA currently requires at least CMAS Level 2 or PADI Advanced Open Water and recent diving. The map coordinate is a deliberately broad offshore area point for display only—not the wreck or structure, an entry point, mooring or navigation waypoint.
Plan within your training
Conditions and hazards
Unknown exact depth until operator briefing, Atlantic current and surge, variable visibility, boat traffic, fishing gear, sharp metal, entanglement and overhead hazards. Do not infer a navigation route or depth from neighboring wrecks.

Facilities and support
GERSMA operates from the ASNA clubhouse in Abidjan and advertises limited BCD, regulator and wetsuit rental. Confirm current boat, cylinders, fills, weights, emergency oxygen, communications, evacuation support and any equipment limits directly with the club.
Independent resource notice
This record is a starting point for independent verification. Access, closures, moorings, weather, currents, depth, visibility, operator availability, and site conditions can change without notice. Confirm current information with the responsible operator, property owner, managing authority, or another qualified local source before planning or attempting a dive.
