Ponta Sul

Also known as: Ponta Sul da Ilha de Porcos · Ponta Sul (Ilha dos Porcos)

The southern point of Ilha dos Porcos, reached by boat from Praia dos Anjos. Researchers count it among the main dive sites of Arraial do Cabo.

Ponta Sul is the southern tip of Ilha dos Porcos, a short boat ride from Praia dos Anjos. A 2017 study of the marine reserve lists it among the main sites, which together carry about 90 % of the roughly 25,000 dives made in the area each year. Travel guides describe clear, fairly shallow water that suits underwater photography. The nearby Canyon is named as a deeper alternative.
