The Grove can be an easy dive, or can be a advanced dive depending on the current and vis. The boat should be able to give some indication before you leave.... depending. On a good day it can be a great dive for the newbie. If the currents are ripping and vis is poor, skip it as you do not have the experience.
Vis makes a huge difference and good vis with strong currents is better than low vis and less current IMO.
I was diving the Grove when two newbies were blown off the wreck. Coast guard picked them up 2 hours later miles from the wreck, and they would never been found except for air support. Don't be those divers as we missed our second dive and we had approx 15 dive boats looking for those divers who btw never even saw the wreck.....
Have fun and dive safe....
