Before you arrive
Access notes
Coordinate is a conservative rounded locality display point only—not an entry, launch, mooring, wreck position, descent line, reef feature or navigation waypoint. Confirm permits and restricted zones; some Gqeberha sites lie in or near marine protected areas.
Plan within your training
Conditions and hazards
Surge, swell, current, rapidly changing visibility, cold stress, boat traffic, separation and entanglement. Deep profiles require training, gas planning and computer/DSMB use; wreck penetration requires overhead and wreck qualifications. Follow the operator's briefing and current MPA rules.
At the site
Facilities and support
The current operator advertises guided dives, equipment rental, air fills and hot showers. Reconfirm nitrox or technical gas, oxygen, communications, weather cancellation and evacuation support.
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.
