Why dive here
With 291+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, eagle rays, humpback whales and nurse sharks - Recifes Caitás offers some of Salvador & Bahia's richest reef diving. Water ranges 26-29°C, warmest February, March, April.
The Recifes Caitás offer a good look at Bahia's coral reefs. It’s a decent shallow dive, easy enough for newer divers to feel comfortable exploring. You'll likely spot smaller reef fish flitting through the coral formations, maybe a moray eel tucked into a crevice. We'd suggest it as a relaxed afternoon dive, perfect for getting a feel for the local marine environment.
