THE WAY IN
Getting there & access
Arrange boat access
The site reference lists boat-only access. The map point identifies the dive site offshore, not a place to board. Confirm the departure harbour, transfer and pickup with your dive centre.
Map reference: 35.9015° N, 14.5411° E · Exact. The underwater point is separate from the boat boarding location.
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.
