Jardim Das Gorgonias

Jardim Das Gorgonias (Garden of the Gorgonians) is a place where – as you’ve probably guessed - you’ll encounter lots of gorgonian sea fans. They vary in color and sizes and are joined by soft corals, sponges, anemones, and algae.

The rocky bottom creates a habitat for a number of sea creatures, including octopuses, morays, nudibranchs, and forkbeard fish. As you round the rock on the right side, you may spot hiding flounders and stingrays resting on the sandy bottom.

Depth: 18 meters/60 feet

Visibility: 5-10 meters/16-33 feet

Place of numerous aquatic life and extraordinary colors. This location requires some attention from divers, well controlled buoyancy and dive mastery with some current are important factors.
