Before you arrive

Access notes

Boat access is documented or routinely used. Book through a current local operator and confirm permits, park authorization, launch, guide, recall, oxygen, communications and emergency plan. No database boat-to-site relationship is asserted.

Plan within your training

Conditions and hazards

Cold water, Atlantic swell and surge, wind, tide, current, changing visibility, fishing gear, aquaculture lines, entanglement and surface traffic may be present. Obtain a same-day local briefing, use appropriate exposure protection, maintain team contact and gas reserve, carry a DSMB where appropriate and follow surface procedures.

At the site

Facilities and support

Cited current operators advertise guides, boats or shore support, rental equipment, fills and training; availability is not guaranteed at the site. Verify nitrox analysis where used, emergency oxygen, communications, permits and evacuation arrangements.

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.
