Monitor your depth carefully on the deeper sections of the reef as the gradual slope can lead you past 40 metres before you notice, compounding narcosis risk. The site runs year-round, so there is no bad season, but confirm gas fills and boat scheduling with the dive shop before you arrive as facilities may require advance booking.
