Brief your buddy and dive guide on the cave section before you enter, as the overhead environment leaves no direct ascent to the surface once inside. Stick to the shallower sections of the dive if you are earlier in your intermediate experience, and save the deeper reaches for when you are comfortable with your air consumption.
