Exclusive Divers Cabo Verde

With a maximum depth of 15 meters, the SS Marcar was a Liberty Ship built in the USA during World War II. The ship was suffering water leaks so it was stranded in Tarrafal, Santo Antão and later towed to São Vicente. In 1968 she sank in the Bay.

Situado nos estaleiros Cabnav, é um local especialmente dedicado aos amantes do peixe-rã e mergulho nocturno. Excelente para cursos e experiências de mergulhos, devido à sua característica confinada: 3-10 metros. Protegido pelo cais e navios atracados, proporciona mergulhos tranquilos. ​

On the northwest of the island, just 10 minutes by boat from Porto Grande, is the bay of Ninho de Guincho (named after the nests of this type of osprey on top of the rock). It is possible to do 4 to 6 routes in the same spot. Offering relaxing dives (5-12m) as well as more demanding ones (15-22m).

Like Ponta de Tubarão, this spot offers the possibility of getting away from the usual style of just following the mountains in drifting mode. The ’’Trident’’ are three rocks approximately 6 meters high, which extend towards the middle of the bay, towards the North, N/E and surrounded by white sand on the sides.

Located between the east and southeast of the back of Djeu, and further away from the islet, it can reach up to 40 meters, between walls and gorges. Similar to Ponta de Tubarão, you have to swim more into open waters, where there are chances of encountering larger pelagic fish, like around the islet.

O nome deve-se ao facto da rocha ser formada por pedras pretas que lembram um conjunto de pequenos cubos. Tem uma profundidade média de 14-16 metros e 22 no máximo. Normalmente faz-se mergulho à deriva, com pedras sempre à esquerda e areia branca à direita, onde se encontra um pequeno recife na parte mais profunda.
