Canjana
Protected Area
Parque Natural de Cruzinha
Canjana on Santo Antão is a mellow, shallow dive, rarely exceeding 17 meters. It's a solid choice for beginners looking to get comfortable, or for anyone wanting a relaxed second dive. You’ll typically drift past volcanic rock formations, keeping an eye out for schooling reef fish and the occasional moray eel peeking from crevices. It’s a good spot to just settle in and enjoy the quiet.
