About Cabeço da Sapata
Cabeço da Sapata is an exposed offshore pinnacle on Noronha's outer coast where current wraps a coral-coated mount and concentrates big-fish traffic around the walls and deeper blue-water side. Operators usually run it as a multi-level advanced dive, with grouper, rays, and occasional sharks making the site feel markedly more committing than the island's sheltered beginner reefs.
