I lost a single tile right by the entrance to the skimmer basket. All the other tiles seem to be firmly attached. I expect i have to drop the water level to repair.

Whats the best approach to fix this? Is there a special adhesive or thinset more appropriate for such repairs?

Thanks. Seems they have above water and underwater solutions. Any experience as to which is more effective?
I could do either I think. The underwater approach seems simpler from my layman perspective.
 
Above water is a lot easier to work with.

Working underwater can get difficult as thinset floats away. You will be a much better long lasting bond working above the water.
