Technical cliff dive on the old Fonte da Telha coastline, with pronounced wall relief, narrow gaps, and a profile that suits precise buoyancy rather than casual cruising. The draw is the hard structure and the living rock faces: anthias, sponges, and Dendrophyllia ramea show up on the stronger faces, while the site rewards a careful, patient line and good sea-state timing.
