Pack a wetsuit thickness you can adjust seasonally: a 3mm suit works in summer but water can drop to 16C in winter, where a 5mm or 7mm will be far more comfortable. Confirm current access permissions and boat operator availability locally before planning your trip, as naval base proximity can affect site access.
