About This Dive Spot
Molhe de Fora is located outside the harbor and features an artificial pier. The dive begins at the sandy bottom near the start of the pier, with rocky structures to the right leading towards the harbor entrance near the ferry dock. Marine life can often be found hiding among the rocks, so using a torch can enhance the experience by revealing creatures in the crevices. Common species observed include puffer fish, rays, lobsters, sand congers, surgeonfish, nudibranchs, amberjacks, spider crabs, Bermuda sea chubs, and trumpet fish. Occasionally, nurse sharks may also be spotted in this area.
