Why dive here
Parede de Bitxon is a wall dive in Santo Antão, Cape Verde.
Parede de Bitxon offers a good wall dive, dropping straight down to 36 metres. We’ve found the rock formations here interesting, with little ledges and overhangs providing shelter for smaller crabs and nudibranchs if you look closely. Visibility can be decent, often around 15-20 metres, making for a pleasant descent. It’s a solid pick for intermediate divers looking for a straightforward wall that still holds some visual interest.
