Arrive early to check the tidal tables and plan your entry for the slack period, as the current here can make depth control difficult once it picks up. Parking is available at the site, but carry a surface marker buoy and a torch regardless of the time of day given the low visibility.
Park along the side of the road on the dike. Enter the water from the small beach in the corner between the left breakwater and the dike.
