Pedra da Nau is a sheltered rocky cove dive off Cascais, usually reached by boat for an easy circuit around low rock walls, gullies, and sandy patches. It suits relaxed beginner-friendly dives when calmer water is the priority, with wrasse, seabream, octopus, cuttlefish, and the occasional ray adding interest around the rock formations.
