Ilha Magaruque

There are many dives in this area, morning dives are a short ride by boat through the lagoon out into open sea. Its about a 30min ride.
Dives are usually double tank dives and the surface intervial is taken up by putting in some deep see fishing.
In the evening a shore entry dive is great. You dive in the lagoon and get to see Seahorses and alot of juvinial fish.
