Time your dive around the current cycles rather than the clock; a slack or mild incoming current positions you well to hold at the corner and watch the sharks work the reef edge. Check current conditions with your operator before entry, as strong flows can push you off the corner faster than expected.
Access is by boat, typically via a dive dhoni.
