Diving in the waters around Sao Miguel

Daily (May to October)

 

There is a fully equipped PADI diving centre at the Hotel Caloura which can be used by both residents of the hotel and non-residents alike. Accommodating any diver, from the complete beginner to the most experienced, with shore and boat dives, one is offered a combination of variety, beauty and adventure.

 

With caves, volcanic drop-offs, arches and an abundance of both Atlantic and Tropical fish life – parrot fish, groupers, sting and eagle rays, moray and conger eels, barracudas, amberjacks, turtles and dolphins – divers will have an unforgettable experience.
