UWBAHIA

Salvador & Bahia, Brazil

The team at UWBAHIA in Salvador know how to make diving in Brazil just easy. We’ve found that sometimes, getting to the better sites here can feel like a bit of an expedition, but they really streamline the whole thing. If you’re looking to get wet, especially if you’re new to diving or just want a relaxed day without fuss, these are your people. They excel at introducing people to the underwater world, offering those first tastes of breathing underwater with their Discover Scuba Diving programs. We’ve always appreciated their straightforward approach. No pretense, just a genuine desire to get you comfortable and exploring. Our pick for a chilled-out afternoon is a simple boat trip out to the shallower reefs. You’ll probably see plenty of snapper, grunts, and maybe a green sea turtle gliding by. The water here feels warm and gentle, like a bath, making it perfect for those first fin kicks. We’d suggest going in the morning if you can, before the breeze picks up too much, for the calmest surface conditions.
