Ponta do Farol

Also known as: São Pedro Lighthouse

This is one of the signature dives of São Pedro, at the far southwestern tip of São Vicente. A wall full of life drops below 30 m. Currents are often strong here, which improves the odds of manta rays, tuna, wahoo and, now and then, whale sharks. Its scenery makes it a favourite for wide-angle photography.
