Parque Natural de Cruzinha
Pipi da Menina is a straightforward dive off Santo Antão, hitting a comfortable maximum depth of 22m. It’s a good spot for beginners to get comfortable in the water, with generally calm conditions. You’ll typically see some of the common local species here, like trumpetfish and parrotfish, cruising over the volcanic rock. We often use it for skill refreshers or as a relaxed first dive of the trip.
