About Pontal do Norte
Pontal do Norte is a massive submerged rock that rises like an underwater skyscraper from the sand, then steps divers up along a cliff and boulder profile. High visibility, deeper water, and regular sightings of big fish, turtles, and sharks give it a classic advanced outside-sea feel.
