THE WAY IN
Getting there & access

Plan for the day you go
Check the current regional wind and sea outlook, then agree the entry, exit, route and required experience with a local operator. Regional forecasts do not measure cave surge, currents, visibility, water quality or closures.
Cave and overhead access requires an on-site assessment and appropriate training and equipment.
