Jequirica is a site for those keen to explore the less-traveled spots off Bahia. We don't have extensive data here, but local chatter suggests a mix of rocky outcrops and some sandy patches. It's probably best suited for divers who enjoy exploring and perhaps finding what isn't in the guidebooks yet, rather than expecting a specific experience. Expect to see typical Atlantic reef fish.
