About ILHA DOS GRAVATAS (BURACO DAS ALMAS) P & P MERGULHO

ILHA DOS GRAVATAS (BURACO DAS ALMAS) P & P MERGULHO is a Buzios boat dive for divers who want a lively rocky route rather than an easy bay swim. The site mixes small caves, a funnel-like rock cut, and coral-covered walls that reward careful buoyancy and a steady pace. It is best planned as a guided boat day because the route feels more exposed than sheltered coast dives and the safer sector depends on sea state. Turtles, rays, and dense fish schools are the main wildlife cues.

Treat the cave pockets as look-ins rather than through-passes. Keep trim tight on the wall, watch buoyancy at the funnel section, and respect the captain's call if the sea state shifts.

Local Intel For ILHA DOS GRAVATAS (BURACO DAS ALMAS) P & P MERGULHO

Community notes to help plan your visit.

Scuba

Best as a guided boat dive for certified divers who are comfortable descending onto a wall and staying tight around cave mouths and coral cover.

Freedive

Not a freedive-first site because the meaningful terrain starts on the boat-dive profile and deeper wall sections.

Snorkel

Snorkeling is limited and weather dependent; the site really pays off on scuba.
