As a beginner, agree with your guide or buddy on a maximum depth before you enter, as the wall drops far beyond recreational limits and it's easy to descend further than intended. Check locally for current boat operator options and whether equipment hire is available at the launch point.
Accessible only by boat from the northeast coast.
