Why dive here
With 219+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, blue whales, dolphins, dwarf minke whales and hammerhead sharks - SUMMER BREEZE offers some of Azores's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 16-24°C, warmest August, September, October.
Summer Breeze, a steamship wreck resting in the Azores, offers a unique opportunity for a shallow dive. It’s sitting at just 10 meters, making it quite accessible for a good long bottom time. We found the hull still largely intact in places, a ghostly outline against the blue, and schools of small fish like damselfish often flitted through the open sections. Keep an eye out for octopus tucked into the darker corners – they love a good wreck hideout. It’s a solid pick if you’re looking for a relaxed wreck dive without the pressure of depth, or if you’re keen on photography and want good light.
