It is not closed to the public (just be wise on where you point your camera) but it is not a tourist attraction either. That said, they do have a general store and you are welcome to buy some refreshments there. I have done so on many occassions.

Enjoy your stay.
You don't need too, but tbh I think it helps to get more out of the experience.

Especially for a short trip.
