About Regi
Regi is a sheltered offshore reef on Portugal's largest natural reef system in Armação de Pera Bay. The site is easy to read underwater, with rocky reef structure, sand patches, and a broad variety of local reef life that rewards slow exploration rather than a rushed drift. It is a good fit for relaxed boat dives when you want a clear, repeatable reef with good conditions year-round.
