Divers can explore depths between 6 and 30 metres, with visibility typically ranging from 20 to 40 metres. Access is strictly by boat. Due to the nature of the currents and the presence of sharks, divers should maintain situational awareness and consider using a reef hook. The site is best suited for experienced divers comfortable with drift diving in varying current conditions.

Time your entry to hit the incoming tide, when current direction pushes you along the wall rather than off it and concentrates fish activity at the corner's tip. Sharks are a known presence at this site, so a reef hook is worth having on your BCD.
