Comments If you are not very familiar with this site, hire a guide! The dive is shallow, but access is controlled by tides and lifeguard rules. Dive is shallow, less than 6 meters, average 3. The macro life is outstanding. Visibility can be poor, 3-6 meters. Dive pressure on weekends is heavy and parking is limited. Arrive early, best to dive during the week.

Really interesting diving, with lots to see.

You must have float & flag. Beware of boat traffic. Water is warm, thin wetsuit very adequate.

UW Photo Comments You are totally on your own. We managed our large cameras in our hotel room. Rinsed in bath tub, dried on kitchen area counters, which were adequate. Hotel toelerates divers but that is not their business.
