Why dive here
With 116+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, blue whales, dolphins, dwarf minke whales and ocean sunfish (mola mola) - Cabeco do Levante offers some of Algarve & Berlengas's richest diving. Water ranges 15-19°C, warmest June, October, November.
Cabeco do Levante is a solid choice when you're diving the Algarve, especially if you’re into exploring some interesting topography. We’ve found the pinnacle structure to be a magnet for life, with plenty of scorpionfish tucked into crevices and schools of sea bream cruising by. Dropping down from 15 metres to around 30, it’s a good one for advanced divers looking for a bit more depth. The currents here can be unpredictable, so we’d suggest checking conditions with your local dive centre before heading out.
