Dive sites in Brazil

Along Fernando de Noronha's windward coast, Caieiras exposes volcanic rock formations split by sand channels. Facing the open Atlantic, the site is prone to swell and surge, opening up during calm weather windows. Marine life gathers inside natural archways and fissures away from open sea currents.

In the Mar de Fora section of the Fernando de Noronha archipelago, Pedras Secas forms an open-ocean volcanic reef shaped by intricate rock architecture. Divers navigate basalt tunnels, arches, and interconnected canyons. This topography shelters resting sharks and turtles, while schooling pelagics patrol the outer perimeter.

Trinta Réis sits on the Mar de Fora side of Fernando de Noronha beside the rocky islet sharing its name. Ocean currents have carved its volcanic relief into fissures, swim-throughs, and basalt boulders scattered over a sandy seabed. Exposed to the open Atlantic, surface conditions depend directly on seasonal winds.
