    Ponta Sul da Ilha de Porcos often delivers a good drift dive, especially when the currents pick up. We’ve found barracuda and schools of grunts hanging around the rocky outcrops here. It’s a decent option for divers who enjoy moving with the water and seeing larger schooling fish rather than focusing on macro life.
