The structure rests on the seabed at depths ranging from 30 to 48 metres, requiring advanced certification and careful gas management. Visibility at the site typically ranges between 5 and 10 metres. Divers access the wreck via a shore entry, where parking is available. Due to the significant depth, divers must monitor their bottom time and buoyancy control closely. Hazards include the depth itself, the risk of nitrogen narcosis, and sea urchins present on the rocks during entry and exit. Divers should remain aware of unpredictable boat traffic in the area and use a surface marker buoy.
