About this dive site

This dive site, known as Tunnels & Bridge, is an ideal spot for beginners located near the Covos peninsula in Portugal. Underwater navigation is straightforward, primarily exploring a beautiful rock formation that ranges from 4 to 8 meters deep. This unique topography features various natural tunnels and bridges, providing both visual interest and sheltered areas for marine life.

The rock formations act as an excellent sanctuary, offering refuge to a variety of local marine species. Divers can expect to encounter numerous small fish species, crustaceans hiding in crevices, and potentially some vibrant invertebrates that thrive in these sheltered environments, making it interesting for macro observation.

Generally offering good visibility, the site is best enjoyed on calm days when coastal conditions are stable, as rough seas can reduce clarity. Its shallow depths make it perfectly suited not only for scuba diving but also for snorkeling and freediving, offering an accessible and rewarding experience for all water enthusiasts.
