The best time to visit Camino de Altura is likely during the warmer months, from spring to fall, when water temperatures are more pleasant and visibility is generally better. Divers should be aware of potential currents, especially around the grotto and the deeper sections of the wall. It's advisable to be comfortable with deeper dives and navigation before exploring this site. This is not a suitable site for beginner divers or snorkelers due to the depth and potential currents. Freediving is also not recommended due to the depth and complexity of the site.
