Before you arrive
Access notes
Coordinate is a conservative rounded locality display point only—not an entry, launch, mooring, reef position, cave entrance, shot line, drop point, ascent line or navigation waypoint. Confirm current marine-park fees, permits, closures, operator access and emergency procedures.
Plan within your training
Conditions and hazards
Open ocean, current, shark encounters, negative entry and blue-water ascent; follow operator shark protocol. Additional shared hazards include surf or open-ocean launching, boat traffic, separation, changing visibility and current, entanglement, marine-life interaction, and decompression illness. Follow the selected operator's briefing and remain within certification and gas limits.
