Taurus e Virgo is a paired wreck dive in Recife where two tugboats sit close enough to visit on one run. The site is an easy 2-for-1 wreck circuit, with both hulls close together and enough structure for careful exploration and controlled penetration. Plan it as a guided boat dive: Recife's sea state can get lively, but when conditions are settled the water is warm, clear, and full of fish.
