Snorkeling and diving on the Maraú Peninsula

Snorkeling in the natural pools

With a mask and snorkel, the Taipu de Fora pools show you fish up close in shallow water. The best time is low tide: see how to use the tide table.

Campinho and the bay

Wikivoyage describes Campinho, on Camamu Bay, as one of the best places in the region for diving, with calm, clear water and rich underwater life.

Scuba diving

Only with an accredited operator and an instructor. Check their certification, the condition of the equipment and the conditions on the day.
