TRIBEMAR SCUBA DIVING - Algarve & Berlengas
Tribemar Scuba Diving offers trips across Portugal’s Algarve coast and further offshore to the Berlengas archipelago. We’ve found their Algarve dives often mean exploring artificial reefs like the Ocean Revival Park, great for wreck enthusiasts. Heading out to Berlengas usually means dramatic granite topography and a chance for pelagics, though the currents can be strong there. It’s a solid choice for divers who appreciate variety and don't mind a bit of a boat ride.
