Yes, if you have access to a boat, you can visit independently. Some visitors have followed guided tours with permission when on their own boats.

Tours commonly depart from the Carenage in St. George's or from various hotels and dive shops along the coast.

The boat trip itself is usually a scenic ride along the coast, adding to the overall experience. The duration depends on the departure point and the tour operator.

Parking availability varies by departure point. If departing from St. George's, there are public parking areas, but it's best to check with your tour operator for specific recommendations.

The park features over 75 sculptures, including life-sized human figures, symbolic pieces like 'The Lost Correspondent,' and the 'Christ of the Deep.' These are designed to become artificial reefs. +1

An underwater camera like a GoPro is highly recommended. Ensure it's waterproof and has good battery life.

If you have a waterproof phone case, you can attempt to take photos with your phone. However, dedicated underwater cameras offer better quality and durability.

Sunny days with clear water provide the best lighting. Avoid overcast days as the colors may appear muted and visibility reduced.

The 'Vicissitudes' (the circle of figures) and 'The Lost Correspondent' are often highlighted for their artistic impact and photographic potential.

Yes, a reliable waterproof bag is essential for protecting your camera and other electronics from water damage, even if you're not planning to go fully underwater.
