About Corais de Ondina
Corais de Ondina is a small coral garden in Salvador with a rocky bottom, dense reef life, and steady fish schools. It suits beginner diving and relaxed training, and when current is present the dive can drift from Ondina toward Barra. The site rewards slow reef scanning for jacks, rays, lobsters, and other reef fish, so plan an unhurried drift-friendly reef run rather than a depth-focused dive.
