Access is by boat only, so arrange your operator in advance and confirm whether tanks and weights are included, as facilities vary and there is no nearby town to fall back on. A shorty or 3mm wetsuit is sufficient given the warm water, but reef gloves are worth packing as protection against accidental jellyfish contact during the dive.
