Brief your skipper on which direction the current is running before you kit up, as the drift can shift and a good surface marker buoy is essential for pick-up. Go early in the morning when the current is more predictable and the visibility tends to be at its clearest.
Generally dived as a boat drop, though shore access is possible in front of the dive center.
