The shore entry involves a surf and shore break, so time your entry between sets and protect your hands from the sharp coral and rocks at the waterline. Closed-heel fins and gloves will save you from cuts on the way in and out.
Take the right exit from EEC Boulevard and drive to the shore. You will enter the water from a rocky surface. Swim out to the drop-off and then descend.
