Description
Start your holiday in Madeira with an unforgettable shore dive at Ponta de São Lourenço, in the protected waters near Azul Diving. Just a short walk from the dive shop, this house reef offers an easy, yet exciting diving experience for both beginners and experienced divers.
The dive takes you through the stunning volcanic caves and rocky formations that characterize the area, making it a visual and aquatic wonder. With a maximum depth of around 15 meters, the dive is accessible while still offering plenty to explore.
Encounter a diverse range of marine life. Keep an eye out for octopuses, which are often spotted hiding in crevices, and the majestic barracudas as they silently swim by. Young groupers and trumpet fish can be seen swimming along the rocks, while garden eels occasionally emerge from the sand.
Rays glide gracefully through the water, and cuttlefish, with their unique ability to change color, add to the magic of the dive. Don’t forget to look for the elusive moray eels, often tucked into the rock formations. This dive is a perfect introduction to the abundant marine life of the island, and a must-do for anyone visiting the beautiful Madeira.
