Before you arrive

Access notes

Book with a qualified local operator and reconfirm certification, route, depth, gas, entry and exit, permissions, wildlife rules and emergency plan. The displayed coordinate is deliberately approximate and must never be used as an entry point, mooring, wreck position, overhead route or navigation waypoint.

Plan within your training

Conditions and hazards

Cold water, depth, current, surge, low visibility and kelp; maintain gas and ascent control.

At the site

Facilities and support

Local operators report some combination of guided boats or shore support, rental equipment, air fills, training and briefing facilities; confirm oxygen, communications, technical gas and emergency capability.

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.
